| Abstract: | Introduction: Liver steatosis measurement by controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) is a noninvasive method for diagnosing steatosis1. Plasma caspase-generated cytokeratin-18 fragments (CK-18) have been proposed as a non-invasive alternative for the diagnosis of NAFLD, especially NASH2. Aims: compare CK-18 serum levels in apparently healthy individuals with and without steatosis. |
