Journal ArticleDOI
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and risk of incident cardiovascular disease: A meta-analysis
TL;DR: Clinicians who manage patients with NAFLD should not focus only on liver disease but should also consider the increased risk of cardiovascular disease and undertake early, aggressive risk factor modification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relation between red blood cell distribution width and inflammatory biomarkers in a large cohort of unselected outpatients.
Giuseppe Lippi,Giovanni Targher,Martina Montagnana,Gian Luca Salvagno,Giacomo Zoppini,Gian Cesare Guidi +5 more
TL;DR: This study demonstrates for the first time a strong, graded association of RDW with hsCRP and ESR independent of numerous confounding factors, and might provide a rationale to introduce the easy, inexpensive RDW in algorithms for cardiovascular risk prediction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cause-specific mortality in type 2 diabetes. The Verona Diabetes Study.
TL;DR: The evidence of an early effect on mortality suggests that prevention, early diagnosis, and treatment should be improved in type 2 diabetic patients and the highest SMRs in the diabetic cohort were for diabetes and liver cirrhosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relations Between Carotid Artery Wall Thickness and Liver Histology in Subjects With Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
Giovanni Targher,Lorenzo Bertolini,Roberto Padovani,Stefano Rodella,Giacomo Zoppini,Luciano Zenari,Massimo Cigolini,Giancarlo Falezza,Guido Arcaro +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the severity of liver histopathology among NAFLD patients is strongly associated with early carotid atherosclerosis, independent of classical risk factors, insulin resistance, and metabolic syndrome features.
Journal ArticleDOI
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is independently associated with an increased prevalence of chronic kidney disease and proliferative/laser-treated retinopathy in type 2 diabetic patients
Giovanni Targher,Lorenzo Bertolini,Stefano Rodella,Giacomo Zoppini,Giuseppe Lippi,C.P. Day,Michele Muggeo +6 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that NAFLD is associated with an increased prevalence of CKD and proliferative/laser-treated retinopathy in type 2 diabetic individuals independently of numerous baseline confounding factors.
