Implication

Observational study identifies high rates of metabolic syndrome in NAFLD patients, suggesting the need for early intervention.

Key Points

  • Among 136 NAFLD patients, 77.9% were diagnosed with metabolic syndrome based on NCEP/ATP-III criteria.
  • The prevalence of metabolic syndrome was significantly higher in males at 81.6% compared to females at 71.4%.
  • Ultrasonography confirmed Grade I steatosis in 74.2%, indicating severity variances in NAFLD.
  • A strong correlation exists between NAFLD and metabolic syndrome components like obesity and dyslipidemia.
