Article Synopsis
- Metabolism dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is characterized by fatty liver and is linked to obesity, type 2 diabetes, or metabolic issues, occurring in individuals without significant alcohol consumption.
- This study aimed to compare five non-invasive indices (Fatty Liver Index, NAFLD Liver Fat Score, Visceral Adiposity Index, Steato Test, and Hepatic Steatosis Index) to assess their effectiveness in predicting liver steatosis among patients with metabolic syndrome.
- Results showed that 65 out of 100 patients with metabolic syndrome had MASLD, with significant results from several scoring systems indicating their potential utility in diagnosing the condition.
