The 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 >0
