Hepatic steatosis index: A simple screening tool reflecting nonalcoholic fatty liver disease

TL;DR: HSI is a simple, efficient screening tool for NAFLD that may be utilized for selecting individuals for liver ultrasonography and for determining the need for lifestyle modifications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association between noninvasive fibrosis markers and mortality among adults with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in the United States.

TL;DR: After a median follow‐up of 14.5 years, NAFLD was not associated with higher mortality, but advanced fibrosis, as determined by noninvasive fibrosis marker panels, is a significant predictor of mortality, mainly from cardiovascular causes, independent of other known factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical epidemiology and disease burden of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease

TL;DR: The increasing prevalence of NAFLD with advanced fibrosis, is concerning because patients appear to experience higher liver-related and non-liver-related mortality than the general population, and one that requires more in-depth analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sarcopenia is an independent risk factor for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and significant fibrosis

TL;DR: Low muscle mass was found to be associated with histological severity in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and sarcopenia was significantly associated with non- alcoholic steatohepatitis and significant fibrosis, independent of obesity, inflammation, and insulin resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is associated with coronary artery calcification
