Association of liver elastography measurements with poor glycaemic control in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes
ROC analysis revealed an exploratory LSM cut-off value of 6.8 kPa for association with poor glycaemic control (AUC = 0.76; sensitivity = 71.2%; specificity = 78.9%). LSMs via transient elastography are independently associated with poor glycaemic control in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes. An LSM threshold of 6.8 kPa may help identify patients who are more likely to present with poor glycaemic control.
