A detailed clinical history was obtained, and an examination was performed. Laboratory tests included fasting plasma glucose and insulin, lipid profile, TSH, free T4, AST, ALT, albumin, and asprosin. The homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) score was calculated. Abdominal ultrasonography was performed to calculate the hepatorenal index and define participants with NAFLD. The data were statistically analyzed.Results There was a statistically significant difference between the three groups regarding serum asprosin concentration (p |
