摘要
During the past two decades, the substantial increase of obesity and type 2 diabetes has brought awareness to their associated multiorgan complications. The liver is one of the main target organs, implying an increasing involvement of gastroenterologists in the care of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a condition involving both hepatology and endocrinology. Globally, more than 1 billion people are estimated to be affected by NAFLD, with a prevalence of 20–30%. 1 Riazi K Azhari H Charette JH et al. The prevalence and incidence of NAFLD worldwide: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

However, several biomarkers could be applied in a prescreening strategy in clinical trial recruitment. The performance of promising markers will be further evaluated in the ongoing prospective LITMUS study cohort. Full-Text PDF Open Access
