Abstract

BACKGROUND & AIMS

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is traditionally associated with obesity. However, there is a subtype of NAFLD, namely NAFLD in lean, that occurs without obesity. However, a recent call to redefine NAFLD to metabolic-associated fatty liver disease focuses on obesity and metabolic dysfunction. Criticism has arisen from the perceived over emphasis on systemic comorbidities, which may disadvantage the lean. The current analysis seeks to quantify the degree of metabolic dysfunction in NAFLD in lean and compare with NAFLD in overweight and obese and non-NAFLD.

METHODS

Medline and Embase databases were searched from inception to March 3, 2022. The inclusion criteria were articles with NAFLD in lean patients presenting with baseline metabolic parameters. Comparisons were conducted with subgroup analysis.

RESULTS

Eighty-five articles were included in the meta-analysis. NAFLD in lean accounted for 13.11% (95% confidence interval [CI], 10.26%-16.62%) of the global population and 14.55% (95% CI, 11.32%-18.51%) in Asia. The degree of metabolic dysfunction was weight dependent with significantly less metabolic dysfunction in NAFLD in lean subjects as compared with NAFLD in overweight counterparts. For NAFLD in lean, only 19.56% (95% CI, 15.28%-24.69%) of the subjects were diabetic, whereas 45.70% (95% CI, 35.01%-56.80%) of obese subjects with NAFLD had diabetes (P < .01). Fasting blood glucose and systolic and diastolic blood pressure values were significantly lower in subjects with NAFLD in lean than in overweight and obese.

CONCLUSION

The current analysis highlights the weight-dependent nature of metabolic dysfunction in NAFLD. Lean subjects with NAFLD were significantly less metabolically unhealthy than were obese and overweight persons with NAFLD. An overreliance on metabolic dysfunction in defining fatty liver will be a flaw in potentially excluding previously characterized NAFLD.

Mid-upper arm circumference is associated with liver steatosis and fibrosis in patients with metabolic-associated fatty liver disease: A population based observational study. Hepatol Commun 2022;6:2262-2272.

Abstract

Metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is a series of liver diseases based on liver steatosis and metabolic disorders. Steatosis, as the core factor in MAFLD diagnosis, and fibrosis, as the major determinant of adverse outcomes of MAFLD, need to be assessed simply and accurately. In this study, we explored the significance of mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) in evaluating liver steatosis and fibrosis in patients with MAFLD. We included 2397 cases with MAFLD from the 2017-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES) database. Liver steatosis and fibrosis were measured by vibration controlled transient elastography. Anthropometric parameters and demographic and serological data were obtained from the NHANES database. The association between MUAC and liver steatosis and fibrosis were evaluated by a multivariable linear regression model, a weighted generalized additive model, and smooth curve fitting using R. MUAC was positively associated with liver steatosis in every multivariate linear regression model (model 1: β = 3.3513; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.7722-3.9304; model 2: β = 3.8492; 95% CI, 3.2441-4.4542; model 3: β = 2.4987; 95% CI, 1.8371-3.1604), and this positive association was consistent in both men and women and among different race groups (Mexican American, other Hispanic, non-Hispanic White, Black, Asian, and other race). On the other hand, MUAC was positively associated with liver fibrosis in every multivariate linear regression model, and this positive association also was consistent in both men and women and among non-Hispanic White and Black populations. Increased MUAC was positively associated with liver steatosis and fibrosis in patients with MAFLD. This was particularly true for MUAC ≥ 42.0 cm. MUAC might be a simple and convenient evaluation tool for MAFLD.
