Features of body component composition and physiometric indices in women with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

https://doi.org/10.33667/2078-5631-2025-19-94-102

Abstract

NAFLD is becoming an increasingly common disease that affects more than 25% of adults worldwide. If specific examination for NAFLD is not performed, this condition usually proceeds asymptomatically until the development of severe and potentially irreversible liver failure. Since the initial stage of NAFLD has no clinical manifestations and is poorly diagnosed, and is more often manifested in women, the aim of our study was to identify some features of the component composition of the body and physiometric indicators characteristic of this group of patients.
