Hepatic steatosis was quantified using a validated magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) volumetric liver fat fraction (VLFF) equation (HepaFat). Of the 588 participants, 488 (83%) were classified as having ‘no SLD’ (VLFF ≤ 3.55%), 76 (12.9%) with ‘mild–moderate’ SLD (VLFF: 3.56%–13.4%) and 24 (4.10%) with ‘severe’ SLD (VLFF &gt; 13.4%).

Faecal microbiota composition differed significantly between no SLD and both mild–moderate (<i>p</i> = 0.004) and severe SLD groups (<i>p</i> = 0.001).
