Abstract:Systemic Immune Inflammatory Index (SII) is a novel indicator of inflammation. However, no studies have reported the effect of SII on the association between metals and total fat (TOFAT).

This cross-sectional study was conducted among adults with complete information on SII, urine metal concentrations, and TOFAT from the 2011–2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHAN… Show more
