The relationship between muscle mass and fat content in body composition and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in the Chinese general population: a cross-sectional study.

In contrast to other parameters, FFM/FM displayed a negative association with liver damage indicators, including a negative association with alanine aminotransferase (Beta±SE: −1.00 ± 0.17, p < 0.001), with aspartate aminotransferase showing borderline significance (Beta±SE: −0.26 ± 0.15, p = 0.084).

Sensitivity analysis As depicted in Figure 1 , when stratified by age, sex, BMI, smoking, drinking, and diabetes, FFM/FM exhibited a consistent negative association with prevalent NAFLD, except for subjects with a BMI ≥ 28 kg/m 2 [OR (95% CI): 2.029 (0.955–4.437)], but this association did not reach statistical significance.
