Fig. 4From: Restoring skeletal muscle mass as an independent determinant of liver fat deposition improvement in MAFLDThe predictors of improvement of liver fat content in univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis in all subjects (A), patients without and with weight loss (B, C), patients with a BMI <25kg/m2 and BMI ≥25kg/m2 (D, E). The improvement of liver steatosis was defined as the liver fat content (LFC) ≥30% relative decline compared with baseline in MRI-PDFF (LFC Baseline-Follow-up/ LFC Baseline≥30%). ASM, appendicular skeletal mass; ASM/W, ASM/weight; HOMA-IR, homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance. Decrease in Weight was defined as △Weight Baseline-Follow-up >0; Decrease in HOMA-IR was defined as △HOMA-IR Baseline-Follow-up >0Back to article page
