A Study of Dietary Patterns Derived by Cluster Analysis and their Association with Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease Severity among Hispanic Patients.

Given the importance of sociocultural influences on diet, it is important to understand dietary patterns prevalent among Hispanic patients with NAFLD. Using cluster analysis, we identified one plant-based versus a distinct fast-food/meat-based pattern associated with detrimental effects among our population. This information is an important starting point for tailoring dietary interventions for Hispanic patients with NAFLD.
