Abstract
Individuals with the metabolic syndrome have a significantly higher prevalence of unexplained elevations in ALT level. Because unexplained elevations in ALT level may signify the presence of NAFLD, our data support the notion that NAFLD is part of the spectrum of the metabolic syndrome. However, no relationship was demonstrated between unexplained elevations in ALT level and microalbuminuria.
