Popis: Aims: To analyze the correlation between neck circumference (NC) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and compare the predictive value of NC for NAFLD with that of other simple anthropometric measures and other biochemical profiles. Methods: 2761 subjects, undergoing a medical check-up at the Changhai Hospital between October 01, 2012 and November 30, 2012, were recruited to the study. NC, other simple anthropometric measures, and biochemical profiles were analyzed. Results: NC in NAFLD subjects with or without elevated ALT were 38.94 ± 2.62 cm and 37.21 ± 3.06 cm respectively, which was significantly higher than that in subjects with other metabolic disorders (NC: 35.33 ± 3.03 cm) and in normal controls (NC: 32.60 ± 2.37) (both P
