Comparing the diagnostic performance of metabolic indices in metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease patients: a retrospective cross-sectional study
Insulin resistance markers, including TyG, HOMA-IR, and eGDR, had the strongest associations with MAFLD. For predicting MAFLD, TyG had the highest performance across all subgroups, except for males and those < 65 years, where HSI and eGDR performed better, respectively.
