Validation of the Fatty Liver Index for identifying non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease in a Kenyan population

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 28, Issue 10, Page 830-838, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Background and Aim Fatty Liver Index (FLI) is a simple clinical scoring system estimating non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
