Fatty liver index associates with relative sarcopenia and GH/ IGF- 1 status in obese subjects [PDF]

, 2016
Recently the association between hepatic steatosis and sarcopenia has been described. GH/IGF-1 axis has been postulated to play a role in linking fatty liver and low muscle mass.

Malnutrition, poor food intake, and adverse healthcare outcomes in non-critically ill obese acute care hospital patients [PDF]

, 2018
Obesity, defined as a BMI\ua0≥\ua030\ua0kg/m, has demonstrated protective associations with mortality in some diseases. However, recent evidence demonstrates that poor nutritional status in critically ill obese patients confounds this relationship.
