| Early discovery of NAFLD might be helpful to recognize those with possibly quiet reformist greasy liver malady. The point of the work is to explore the relationship between low pee pH and non-alcoholic greasy liver malady (NAFLD). This is a case control study, including 80 subjects isolated into two fundamental gatherings a solid benchmark group framed of 20 subjects without NAFLD shaped of 11 guys and 9 females with their ages went from 30 to 70 years, and an infected one shaped of 60 patients which partitioned into two subgroups: 30 diabetic patients framed of 16 guys and 14 females matured from 27 to 62 years, and 30 nondiabetic patients framed of 17 guys and 13 females matured from 34 to 70 years. all members were at that point going through mix of clinical, biochemical and imaging information to survey liver condition and glycemic state. Urinary PH was altogether lower in NAFLD cases than their controls, while 24 hours urinary proteins was higher among contemplated NAFLD cases yet not arrive at noteworthy level. affectability of urinary PH in discovery of NAFLD cases was 83.3% at cut-off 5.45, with capacity of avoidance of really negative cases without greasy liver by 37.6%. End: urinary pH can be utilized as a simple appropriate marker of essence of NAFLD, and it may help clinicians helpfully recognize patients at high danger of NAFLD in setting of mass screening of populace. | ||||
