What this study is about

1. Identifying the association between hyperuricemia and NAFLD can lead to early detection and prevention of liver fibrosis in adult obese patients. 2. Understanding the relationship between hyperuricemia and NAFLD can inform targeted therapy, such as urate-lowering treatment, to potentially slow disease progression. 3 - To examine the relationship between serum uric acid levels and liver fibrosis severity\*: Assessing the correlation between serum uric acid levels and the severity of liver fibrosis in adult obese patients with NAFLD. 4- To identify potential mechanisms underlying the association\*: Exploring the potential mechanisms by which hyperuricemia may contribute to the development and progression of NAFLD and liver fibrosis in adult obese patients.

A promising-looking record is not the same as confirmed eligibility. The study team must review the full criteria and current recruitment status.
