The great burden of chronic liver disease (CLD) in forthcoming years is expected to come from nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and especially from its progressive form known as non- alcoholic steatohepatitis. The burden of NAFLD goes in parallel with the burden of obesity and type 2 diabetes, and NAFLD is emerging as an independent predictor of cardiometabolic disease and liver-related and general mortality.

Abstract
The great burden of chronic liver disease (CLD) in forthcoming years is expected to come from nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and especially from its progressive form known as non- alcoholic steatohepatitis. The burden of NAFLD goes in parallel with the burden of obesity and type 2 diabetes, and NAFLD is emerging as an independent predictor of cardiometabolic disease and liver-related and general mortality.File in questo prodotto:
