Core Tip |
This retrospective study determined that controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) could be used as a noninvasive diagnostic tool to evaluate hepatic steatosis effectively and accurately in patients with autoimmune liver diseases. Patients with autoimmune hepatitis concomitant with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) had higher IgG levels and liver stiffness measurement values, while patients with NAFLD with autoimmune phenomena had higher gamma-glutamyl transferase levels and CAP values, which benefits the identification of these two kinds of patients. |
