The Association between NHHR and Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: Result from NHANES 2017 - 2023

Key Points

• This research aims to investigate the relationship between NHHR and the risk of developing nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
• Analysis of NHANES data from 2017 to 2023
• Assessment of NHHR levels
• Evaluation of NAFLD prevalence in the population
• A strong association between lower NHHR levels and increased risk of NAFLD
• Improving NHHR levels may reduce hepatic steatosis
• Findings suggest NHHR can be a potential biomarker for NAFLD risk assessment
