Noninvasive Liver Fibrosis Indices as Indicators of Microvascular and Macrovascular Complications in Type 2 Diabetes

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is more prevalent in patients with obesity, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome, which are risk factors for nonalcoholic steatohepatitis and liver fibrosis. NAFLD is related to cardiovascular outcomes in diabetes. We aimed to investigate the relationship between diabetic complications and NAFLD fibrosis score (NFS) and Fibrosis-4 score (FIB-4).
