Prevalence and association of MASLD in metabolically healthy young Asian Americans with obesity: A nationwide inpatient perspective (2019)
This nationwide analysis demonstrates that (MHO+) is associated with a higher prevalence of MASLD. In the (MHO+) cohort, there was an association of MASLD with sex, high-income quartile, no prior bariatric surgery, non-tobacco use, and non-hypothyroidism. Further prospective multicenter studies are needed to evaluate the association of MASLD in (MHO+) patients with comorbid conditions.
