Body composition differences in patients with Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease

Although body composition (BC) has been associated with Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD), there is little evidence of differences in BC in patients with MASLD regarding body mass index (BMI). The aim of this study was to determine differences in BC in terms of BMI and...

Zusammenfassung:Although body composition (BC) has been associated with Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD), there is little evidence of differences in BC in patients with MASLD regarding body mass index (BMI).

It is a cross-sectional study with patients who attended the check-up unit. Liver steatosis was evaluated by controlled attenuation parameter, and patients were classified into five groups according to BMI, presence of MASLD, and metabolic characteristics:
