Association between novel inflammatory markers and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: a cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This study aimed to investigate the association between novel inflammatory markers (NIMs) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

Methods

A total of 6306 subjects were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. NIMs, including neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), C-reactive protein to albumin ratio (CAR), lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR), systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and prognostic nutritional index (PNI), were calculated. The prevalence of NAFLD and its association with NIMs were assessed by multivariable logistic regression analysis. Subgroup analysis were performed based on age, sex and BMI.

Results

The prevalence of NAFLD was 52.5% in the study population. Compared with non-NAFLD subjects, NAFLD pati
