Restricted cubic spline plots of the association between the indicators of iron metabolism and the risk of NAFLD based on the NHANES database. The levels of serum iron (a), ferritin (b), TSAT (c), and sTfR (d) were log10 transformed. Analyses were adjusted for age, sex, education level, race/ethnicity, family poverty-income ratio, smoking, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, body mass index, waist circumference, physical activity, total energy intake, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, triglycerides, total cholesterol, uric acid, and hemoglobin.
