Discussion

Observational study explores the link between insulin resistance and fatty liver index in overweight adults, indicating its diagnostic potential.

The prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease was found to be 57% using the fatty liver index.
Sensitivity and specificity of the fatty liver index against ultrasonography were 77.1% and 76.1% respectively, indicating reliability.
An observational cross-sectional study assessed 107 overweight non-diabetic patients in South India over 2022 to 2023.
These findings suggest that the fatty liver index could be a practical diagnostic tool when traditional imaging is unavailable.

Słowińska et al. (2025) studied this question.
