Joint associations of lipoprotein(a) and systemic inflammatory indices with FibroTouch-derived hepatic steatosis and liver stiffness in Chinese adults
Background Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is synthesized mainly in the liver, whereas blood cell-derived inflammatory indices reflect systemic immune–inflammatory status. We examined their associations with FibroTouch-assessed hepatic steatosis and liver stiffness in Chinese adults. Methods This hospital-based cross-sectional...
