This national population-based study aimed to assess the cumulative burden of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) measured via the fatty liver index (FLI) and its association with kidney cancer risk in young men aged 20-39. : Using the Korean National Health Insurance Service database, we examined a cohort of 1,007,906 men (age 20-39) who underwent four consecutive annual check-ups from 2009 to 2012. The FLI, calculated from body mass index values, waist circumference, triglyceride levels, and gamma-glutamyl transferase levels, was used to quantify the cumulative burden of NAFLD (FLI ≥ 60).

This study investigated the association between SLD subtypes and the incidence of CP in a nationwide cohort.
