Correlation between ratio of fasting blood glucose to high density lipoprotein cholesterol in serum and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in American adults: a population based analysis

Based on previous research, elevated fasting blood glucose (FBG) and decreased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels are associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). It is hypothesized that the prevalence of NAFLD may be proportional to the FBG-to-HDL-C ratio (GHR).
