The association between modified cardiometabolic index with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and liver fibrosis: a cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Cardiometabolic index (CMI) was proposed ten years ago as an indicator combining obesity and dyslipidemia. This study aimed to investigate the relationships between newly modified CMI (MCMI) with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and liver fibrosis.

Methods

This cross-sectional study included participants in the 2017-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey database (NHANES). Linear regression was used to explore the relationship between MCMI and Baseline characteristics. Logistic regression was conducted to analyze the correlation among MCMI with NAFLD and liver fibrosis. Furthermore, restricted cubic spline (RCS) was performed to estimate nonlinear relationships. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to assess the diagnostic
