was ist der cap wert im blut — which blood markers matter?

TIKKI knowledge answer
The term 'CAP value in blood' is misleading: CAP (Controlled Attenuation Parameter) is not measured in blood but via ultrasound (FibroScan) to estimate liver fat content (steatosis). There is no direct blood marker for liver fat. For liver health, established blood markers include ALT, AST, GGT, bilirubin, and for fibrosis suspicion, the FIB-4 score or NAFLD fibrosis score. Inflammatory markers like CRP (C-reactive protein) and the lipid profile (LDL, HDL, triglycerides) are also important indicators. Evidence for these markers is strong (human-strong), but no single value is diagnostic. An elevated CAP value (e.g., >280 dB/m) suggests fatty liver, which can be influenced by lifestyle (diet, exercise). Caveat: CAP is not a blood test, and interpretation should always be done by a physician. MyBody-X tests do not routinely include these markers; for comprehensive liver diagnostics, specific medical examinations are required.
