Predictive value of anthropometric and biochemical indices in non-alcoholic fatty pancreas disease: a cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Triglyceride (TG), triglyceride-glucose index (TyG), body mass index (BMI), TyG-BMI and triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein ratio (TG/HDL) have been reported to be reliable predictors of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. However, there are few studies on potential predictors of non-alcoholic fatty pancreas disease (NAFPD). Our aim was to evaluate these and other parameters for predicting NAFPD.

Design

Cross-sectional study design.

Setting

Physical examination centre of a tertiary hospital in China.

Participants

This study involved 1774 subjects who underwent physical examinations from January 2016 to September 2016.

Primary and secondary outcome measures

From each subject, data were collected for 13 basic physical examination and blood b
