Prevalence and Crucial Parameters in Diabesity-Related Liver Fibrosis: A Preliminary Study.

The hepatic elastographic stiffness index (indicating the severity of liver fibrosis, measured in kPa) in patients with T2DM was significantly correlated with several factors: BMI (R = 0.222; p = 0.008), MCV (R = −0.196, p = 0.020), RDW-CV (R = 0.211; p = 0.013), ALT (R = 0.336; p < 0.001), AST (R = 0.259; p = 0.002), GGTP (R = 0.418; p < 0.001), albumin (R = −0.185; p = 0.028), HDL-C (R = −0.183; p = 0.031), fasting glucose (R = 0.274; p = 0.001), HbA1c (R = 0.297; p = 0.005)—there were also borderline significant correlations for PLT (R = −0.161, p = 0.058) and triglycerides (R = 0.165, p = 0.053); with the exception of the correlation pertaining to GGTP, all other correlations can be categorized as weak correlations based on the Chaddock scale.
