Key Words Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease; Fatty liver index; Waist circumference; Body mass index; Optimal cutoff points; Discriminatory performance
Core Tip The present study was carried out to evaluate the discriminatory capability of fatty liver index in the diagnosis of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) among the general population of northern Iran. Our results showed that the chance of NAFLD occurrence was increased by 5.8% after a one unit increase in fatty liver index (FLI). Although we found that FLI has good discriminatory power, its capability was not superior to that of waist circumference.
