We examined prevalence of hepatic steatosis by race/ethnicity and associations with sex hormone binding globulin.<h4>Methods</h4>Participants included post-menopausal women who underwent hepatic ultrasound (n = 345) at the Michigan site of the Study of Women's Health Across the Nation, a population-based study. We examined hepatic steatosis prevalence by race/ethnicity and used logistic regression models to calculate the odds of hepatic steatosis with race/ethnicity and sex hormone binding globulin, after adjustment for age, alcohol use, waist circumference, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglycerides, sysDiabetic medicine : a journal of the British Diabetic AssociationRacial/ethnic differences in hepatic steatosis in a population-based cohort of post-menopausal women: the Michigan Study of Women's Health Across the Nation.PMC3786038R01 DK083297U01 AG012546U01 AG012505K23 DK071552U01 AG017719AG012546AG012505R0DK083297K23DK071552U01 AG012554U01 AG012531U01 AG012553P30 DK092926U01 AG012535P60 DK020572U01 AG012539AG012539AG012554AG012553AG012531AG012535NR004061U01 NR004061AG012495U01 AG012495P60DK020572Kim CHarlow SDNan BHelmuth MCarlos RKarvonen-Gutierrez CARandolph JFKong SfalseRacial/ethnic differences in hepatic steatosis in a population-based cohort of post-menopausal women: the Michigan Study of Women's Health Across the Nation.<h4>Aims</h4>The prevalence of hepatic steatosis may differ between post-menopausal African-American women and non-Hispanic white women and by sex hormone binding globulin level.
