Figure 1

Correlation between the change (delta) of the hepatic steatosis index (HSI) from baseline to 12 months of treatment and delta of ISI Matsuda. Ultrasonography detected hepatic steatosis in 19 (61.2%) patients both at baseline and after 12 months of treatment, while high HSI (defined as >36) was found in 26 (83.8%) patients at baseline and 14 (45.1%) patients after treatment.
