M$1 Answer
The elevated levels of the liver enzyme alanine aminotransferase (ALT), a marker of NAFLD are marker of metabolic syndrome.
---quote----
In adults, researchers have shown an association between metabolic syndrome and a group of diseases called nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), which at its most severe, may progress to irreversible liver damage. The purpose of the current study was to investigate to what extent metabolic syndrome in adolescents was associated with elevated levels of the liver enzyme alanine aminotransferase (ALT), a marker of NAFLD.
