Study and Comparison of Metabolic Profile of Lean and Obese Subjects with Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease.

Conclusion: Lean NAFLD has significantly higher WC in comparison to non-NAFLD counterparts suggesting possible association with central adiposity. Lean and obese NAFLD share common set of metabolic abnormalities, albeit with varying intensity. Lean NAFLD has more severe insulin resistance in comparison to obese NAFLD. Lean NAFLD subjects appeared to have less severe transaminasemia. PMID: 32738842 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
