Lipoprotein combine index is associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: a 5-year longitudinal cohort study in non-obese Chinese populations with normal lipids
This study offers novel insights into the relationship between LCI and NAFLD risk in non-obese Chinese individuals with normal lipid levels. The non-linear association and the moderate discriminatory ability of LCI suggest its potential utility as a practical screening marker for population-level risk stratification and early preventive strategies in seemingly low-risk, normal-weight populations.
