The current study was undertaken to examine metabolic and body composition correlates of fatty liver in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). Eighty-three men and women with type 2 DM [mean body mass index (BMI): 34+/-0.5 kg/m(2)] and without clinical or laboratory evidence of liver dysfunction had body composition assessments of fat mass (FM), visceral adipose tissue (VAT), liver and spleen computed tomography (CT) attenuation (ratio of liver to spleen), muscle CT attenuation, and thigh adiposity; these assessments were also performed in 12 lean and 15 obese nondiabetic volunteers. Insulin sensitivity was measured with a euglycemic insulin infusion (40 mU.m(-2).min(-1)) combined with systemic indirect calorimetry to assess glucose and lipid oxidation, and with infusions of [H-2(2)] glucose for assessment of endogenous glucose production. A majority of those with type 2 DM (63%) met CT criteria for fatty liver, compared with 20% of obese and none of the lean nondiabetic volunteers. Fatty liver was most strongly correlated with VAT (r=-0.57, P
