Upregulation of serum expression of miR-217 in non alcoholic fatty liver disease.

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: < 0.0001). Furthermore, according to ROC curve analysis, miR-217 showed outstanding diagnostic ability (AUC of 1, a cutoff point of 1.329, sensitivity and specificity of 100%). There was a substantial negative correlation among miR-217 and free T4 without any significantly observed correlation between miR-217 and other measured variables. In conclusion, significantly higher serum miR-217 levels in NAFLD patient compared to healthy volunteers support the notion that miR-217 is a promising biomarker for NAFLD disease and advance our knowledge of the illness.
