Prevalence and Risk Factors of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) in Non-Obese Patients with Schizophrenia: A Retrospective Study. Diabetes Metab Syndr Obes 2024; 17:841-849. [PMID: 38406266 PMCID: PMC10893889 DOI: 10.2147/dmso.s437811] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2023] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Background To assess the prevalence and risk factors of NAFLD in non-obese patients with schizophrenia in a public psychiatric hospital in China. Methods A total of 1,305 adult inpatients with schizophrenia in 2019 were included in this retrospective study. Body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m2 was considered obese, and BMI < 25 kg/m2 was considered non-obese. We obtained the data from electronic records of the Affiliated Brain Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University. Results A total of 1,045 non-obese patients and 260 obese patients were included in this study. The prevalence of NAFLD in non-obese patients was 25.0%, and it was much lower that in the obese patients (25.0% vs 64.6%, p < 0.001). Among the non-obese patients, there were significant differences in age, BMI, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), metabolic indices, and the prevalence of diabetes and hypertension between patients with NAFLD and patients without NAFLD. According to the results of binary logistic regression analysis, age, BMI, ALT, triglyceride (TG) and diabetes were significantly related to NAFLD among non-obese patients with schizophrenia. In contrast, HDL-C was was negatively associated with NAFLD among non-obese patients. Conclusion This study suggested that NAFLD was common in patients with schizophrenia, even in non-obese patients with schizophrenia. In non-obese patients with schizophrenia, age, BMI, ALT, TG and diabetes are significantly associated with NAFLD. Moreover, HDL-C level was an independent protective factor against NAFLD. Given the adverse outcomes of NAFLD, it is necessary to increase awareness of NAFLD in patients with schizophrenia, especially in non-obese patients with schizophrenia.

Diabetes Metab Syndr Obes 2023; 16:3533-3545. [PMID: 37954889 PMCID: PMC10637207 DOI: 10.2147/dmso.s428523] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2023] [Accepted: 10/31/2023] [Indexed: 11/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose Sex-based differences in patients with bipolar disorders (BD) are well recognized, and it is well known that the prevalence and severity of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are both higher in men than in women. Although metabolic disorders such as NAFLD are common in patients with BD, sex differences and risk factors for NAFLD comorbidity in these patients have not been thoroughly explored. This study aimed to investigate sex differences in patients with comorbid NAFLD and BD and associated risk factors. Methods This retrospective cross-sectional study included 710 patients with BD. Clinical data of patients with BD, including information on fasting glucose, liver function-related enzymes, relevant lipid data, uric acid, the triglyceride-glucose index (TyG), and demographics, were derived from the hospital electronic medical record system from June 2020 to July 2022. We performed logistic regression analysis and calculated the odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals of factors using t-tests, χ²-tests, and receiver operating characteristic. NAFLD was diagnosed using liver ultrasonography. Results The prevalence of NAFLD was higher in male patients with BD than in female patients (50.9% vs 38.5%), and there were significant differences in the years of education and marital status (all P<0.05). Regression analysis showed that the risk factors for comorbidities were the body mass index (BMI), fasting glucose, and apolipoprotein B levels in male patients and the BMI, bipolar disease course, glutamine transpeptidase levels, and the TyG in female patients. Conclusion Sex-based differences exist in risk factors and in the prevalence of comorbid NAFLD among patients with BD. BMI is a sex-independent risk factor, and clinical attention should be targeted to risk factors associated with comorbid NAFLD related to sex, especially in female patients with BD who presenting a high TyG index.

Abstract
Background The relationship between depressive symptoms and chronic liver disease (CLD) is still unclear. We aimed to determine whether depressive symptoms are associated with CLD in a large population sample. Methods The data was from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS), an ongoing nationally representative prospective cohort study. Depressive symptoms were assessed with the catchment-area epidemiology survey-depression (CES-D). CLD was identified by the patient's self-report about a physician's diagnosis at each visit. Multi-adjusted logistic regression and Cox regression models were used. Results A total of 14,995 participants (53.1% female; mean age: 58.85 ± 9.87 years) and 13,405 participants (53.64% female; mean age: 58.58 ± 9.69 years) were included in the cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses, respectively. In the cross-sectional analysis, the odds ratio of CLD in patients with moderate and severe depressive symptoms were 1.46 [95% confidence interval (CI), 1.16-1.83] and 1.78 (95% CI, 1.23-2.56) than those with none/mild depressive symptoms, respectively. In the longitudinal analysis, compared to participants with none/mild depressive symptoms, the hazard rates of CLD in those with moderate and severe depressive symptoms were 1.65 (95%CI, 1.33-2.03) and 1.80 (95%CI, 1.24-2.60). And the 50th percentile difference of time (years) at the incidence of CLD in participants with moderate and severe depressive symptoms were - 0.83 (95%CI, -1.18, -0.49) and - 0.96 (95%CI, -1.56, -0.35), respectively. Conclusion Elevated depressive symptoms were associated with an increased risk of CLD among middle-aged and older adults in China.

Abstract
Objective Obesity poses an increased risk for the onset of Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The influence of other factors, such as sex in the incidence and severity of this liver disease has not yet been fully elucidated. Thus, we aimed to identify the NAFLD serum metabolic signatures associated with sex in normal, overweight and obese patients and to associate the metabolite fluctuations across the increasing liver steatosis stages. Methods and results Using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) serum samples of 210 NAFLD cases and control individuals diagnosed with liver U/S, our untargeted metabolomics enquiry provided a sex distinct metabolic bouquet. Increased levels of alanine, histidine and tyrosine are associated with severity of NAFLD in both men and women. Moreover, higher serum concentrations of valine, aspartic acid and mannose were positively associated with the progression of NAFLD among the male subjects, while a negative association was observed with the levels of creatine, phosphorylcholine and acetic acid. On the other hand, glucose was positively associated with the progression of NAFLD among the female subjects, while levels of threonine were negatively related. Fluctuations in ketone bodies acetoacetate and acetone were also observed among the female subjects probing a significant reduction in the circulatory levels of the former in NAFLD cases. A complex glycine response to hepatic steatosis of the female subjects deserves further investigation. Conclusion Results of this study aspire to address the paucity of data on sex differences regarding NAFLD pathogenesis. Targeted circulatory metabolome measurements could be used as diagnostic markers for the distinct stages of NAFLD in each sex and eventually aid in the development of novel sex-related therapeutic options.

Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a complex metabolic-inflammatory disease associated with poor outcomes and decreased quality of life. NAFLD is overrepresented in patients with psychiatric disorders like depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia; however, a comprehensive review on NAFLD and psychiatric disorders remains to be delineated. This review endeavors to investigate the association of NAFLD with psychiatric disorders, including shared pathogenesis and future clinical derivatives. Extant literature suggests that patients with psychiatric disorders (in particular, mood disorders) are more susceptible to the development of NAFLD due to multiple reasons, including but not limited to hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis dysregulation, metabolic syndrome, and chronic perceived stress. Moreover, the clinical manifestations of mood disorders (e.g., anhedonia, psychomotor retardation, lifestyle modification, etc.), and potentially long-term treatment with weight-gaining agents, differentially affect these patients, making them more prone to NAFLD. Considering the increased morbidity associated with both mood disorders and NAFLD, our review recommends regular screenings for NAFLD in select patients with mood disorders exhibiting signs of increased risk (i.e., obesity, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, or family history of NAFLD) for better diagnosis and holistic care of both potentially interrelated conditions.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2023; 14:1159258. [PMID: 37334291 PMCID: PMC10272397 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2023.1159258] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2023] [Accepted: 05/19/2023] [Indexed: 06/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Background and aims Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) is common worldwide and has previously been reported to be associated with sleep traits. However, it is not clear whether NAFLD changes sleep traits or whether the changes in sleep traits lead to the onset of NAFLD. The purpose of this study was to investigate the causal relationship between NAFLD and changes in sleep traits using Mendelian randomization. Methods We proposed a bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis and performed validation analyses to dissect the association between NAFLD and sleep traits. Genetic instruments were used as proxies for NAFLD and sleep. Data of genome-wide association study(GWAS) were obtained from the center for neurogenomics and cognitive research database, Open GWAS database and GWAS catalog. Three MR methods were performed, including inverse variance weighted method(IVW), MR-Egger, weighted median. Results In total,7 traits associated with sleep and 4 traits associated with NAFLD are used in this study. A total of six results showed significant differences. Insomnia was associated with NAFLD (OR(95% CI)= 2.25(1.18,4.27), P = 0.01), Alanine transaminase levels (OR(95% CI)= 2.79(1.70, 4.56), P =4.71×10-5) and percent liver fat(OR(95% CI)= 1.31(1.03,1.69), P = 0.03). Snoring was associated with percent liver fat (1.15(1.05,1.26), P =2×10-3), alanine transaminase levels (OR(95% CI)= 1.27(1.08,1.50), P =0.04).And dozing was associated with percent liver fat(1.14(1.02,1.26), P =0.02).For the remaining 50 outcomes, no significant or definitive association was yielded in MR analysis. Conclusion Genetic evidence suggests putative causal relationships between NAFLD and a set of sleep traits, indicating that sleep traits deserves high priority in clinical practice. Not only the confirmed sleep apnea syndrome, but also the sleep duration and sleep state (such as insomnia) deserve clinical attention. Our study proves that the causal relationship between sleep characteristics and NAFLD is the cause of the change of sleep characteristics, while the onset of non-NAFLD is the cause of the change of sleep characteristics, and the causal relationship is one-way.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic liver disease is associated with various neuropsychiatric conditions. There are currently no large studies assessing and comparing the prevalence of psychiatric illnesses based on patient profiles and the etiology of cirrhosis.
AIM To examine the trends of hospitalizations among psychiatric conditions in cirrhosis.
METHODS We used the National Inpatient Sample database 2009-2019 for the primary diagnosis of liver cirrhosis. The outcomes included the prevalence, trends, and associations of psychiatric diagnoses in these hospitalizations. Chi-square for categorical variables and the Wilcoxon rank test for continuous variables were utilized.
RESULTS The prevalence of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) in liver cirrhosis hospitalizations increased from 0.17% in 2009 to 0.92% in 2019 (P < 0.001). The prevalence of depression increased from 7% in 2009 to 12% in 2019 (P < 0.001). Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) prevalence increased from 0.06% to 0.24%. The prevalence of schizophrenia increased from 0.59% to 0.87% (P < 0.001). Schizoaffective disorder prevalence increased from 0.10% to 0.35% (P < 0.001). Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) prevalence displayed increasing trends from 0.36% in 2009 to 0.93% in 2019 (P < 0.001). The prevalence of suicidal ideation increased from 0.23% to 0.56% in 2019. Cirrhosis related to alcoholic liver disease [adjusted odds ratios (aOR) 1.18, 95%CI 1.08-1.29, P < 0.001] and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) (aOR 1.14, 95%CI 1.01-1.28, P = 0.025) was associated with depression more than other causes. Alcohol- and NAFLD-associated cirrhosis had a stronger link to psychiatric disorders. Females had a higher association with GAD (aOR 2.56, 95%CI 2.14-3.06, P < 0.001), depression (aOR 1.78, 95%CI 1.71-1.84, P < 0.001), bipolar disorder (aOR 1.64, 95%CI 1.52-1.77, P < 0.001] and chronic fatigue (aOR 2.31, 95%CI 1.31-4.07, P < 0.001) when compared to males. Blacks, Hispanics, and Asian/Native Americans had a significantly lower association with GAD, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and ADHD when compared to the white race.
CONCLUSION The prevalence of psychiatric comorbidities in liver cirrhosis hospitalizations has increased over the last decade. Females had a higher association with psychiatric disorders compared to males. Blacks, Hispanics, and Asian/Native Americans had lower associations with psychiatric comorbidities compared to the white race.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Studies have revealed a high prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) among adult patients with mental disorders, as well as its associate risk factors, however little is known about these in pediatric population. The aim of the present study is to investigate the prevalence of NAFLD in pediatric inpatients with mental disorder, as well as to explore the risk factors. METHODS In this retrospective study, we included 1156 pediatric inpatients with mental disorder admitted to our hospital between January 2020 and December 2021, including inpatients with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depressive disorder and other mental disorders. Relevant clinical data were obtained from the electronic medical records. We calculated the prevalence rate of NAFLD, and compared NAFLD prevalence between gender, mental disorders types, antipsychotics use, and comorbidities. Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine risk factors associated with NAFLD. RESULTS The prevalence of NAFLD in pediatric inpatients with mental disorders was 7.35% (85/1156). Patients with NAFLD had senior age than those without NAFLD (15.33±1.75 vs 14.21±1.95 year-old, P<0.001). The NAFLD prevalence in participants with schizophrenia (12.11%) was higher than in participants with bipolar disorder (8.45%), depressive disorder (7.06%) and other mental disorders (2.97%)(p=0.002). The NAFLD prevalence was higher in participants who used antipsychotics (8.70%) than those who didn't (5.45%) (p=0.038). Multivariate analysis revealed that senior age, body weight (overweight/obese) and dyslipidemia were independent risk factors for NAFLD in pediatric inpatients with mental disorders. CONCLUSIONS The NAFLD prevalence was is higher in those patients with schizophrenia and receiving antipsychotic medication. Metabolic factors and longer evolution may explain these differences.

Abstract
MAFLD/NAFLD is the most ordinary liver disease categorized by hepatic steatosis with the increase of surplus fat in the liver and metabolic liver dysfunction, which is associated with bigger mortality and a high medical burden. An association between MAFLD/NAFLD and central nervous system disorders including psychological disorders has been demonstrated. Additionally, MAFLD/NAFLD has been correlated with various types of neurodegenerative disorders such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or Parkinson’s disease. Contrasted to healthy controls, patients with MAFLD/NAFLD have a greater prevalence risk of extrahepatic complications within multiple organs. Dietary interventions have emerged as effective strategies for MAFLD/NAFLD. The PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway involved in the regulation of Th17/Treg balance might promote the pathogenesis of several diseases including MAFLD/NAFLD. As extrahepatic complications may happen across various organs including CNS, cooperative care with individual experts is also necessary for managing patients with MAFLD/NAFLD.

Neuropsychiatr Dis Treat 2023; 19:379-389. [PMID: 36846597 PMCID: PMC9946011 DOI: 10.2147/ndt.s398385] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2022] [Accepted: 01/27/2023] [Indexed: 02/19/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Long-term hospitalized patients with schizophrenia (SCZ) are vulnerable to physical illness, leading to impaired life expectancy and treatment outcomes. There are few studies on the influence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in long-term hospitalized patients. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of and influence factors for NAFLD in hospitalized patients with SCZ. PATIENTS AND METHODS This cross-sectional retrospective study included 310 patients who had experienced long-term hospitalization for SCZ. NAFLD was diagnosed based on the results of abdominal ultrasonography. The T-test, Mann-Whitney U-test, correlation analysis, and logistic regression analysis were used to determine the influence factors for NAFLD. RESULTS Among the 310 patients who had experienced long-term hospitalization for SCZ, the prevalence of NAFLD was 54.84%. Antipsychotic polypharmacy (APP), body mass index (BMI), hypertension, diabetes, total cholesterol (TC), apolipoprotein B (ApoB), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), triglycerides (TG), uric acid, blood glucose, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT), high-density lipoprotein, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio significantly differed between the NAFLD and non-NAFLD groups (all P<0.05). Hypertension, diabetes, APP, BMI, TG, TC, AST, ApoB, ALT, and GGT were positively correlated with NAFLD (all P<0.05). The results of the logistic regression analysis indicated that APP, diabetes, BMI, ALT, and ApoB were the influence factors for NAFLD in patients with SCZ. CONCLUSION Our results suggest a high prevalence of NAFLD among patients hospitalized long-term due to severe SCZ symptoms. Moreover, a history of diabetes, APP, overweight/obese status, and increased levels of ALT and ApoB were identified as negative factors for NAFLD in these patients. These findings may provide a theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of NAFLD in patients with SCZ and contribute to the development of novel targeted treatments.

Abstract
Schizophrenia is a severe mental illness which can have a devastating impact on an individual’s quality of life. Comorbidities are high amongst patients and life expectancy is approximately 15 years less than the general population. Despite the well-known increased mortality, little is known about the impact of gastrointestinal and liver disease on patients with schizophrenia. We aimed to review the literature and to make recommendations regarding future care. Literature searches were performed on PubMed to identify studies related to gastrointestinal and liver disease in patients with schizophrenia. High rates of chronic liver disease were reported, with Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease being of particular concern; antipsychotics and metabolic syndrome were contributing factors. Rates of acute liver failure were low but have been associated with antipsychotic use and paracetamol overdose. Coeliac disease has historically been linked to schizophrenia; however, recent research suggests that a causal link is yet to be proven. Evidence is emerging regarding the relationships between schizophrenia and peptic ulcer disease, inflammatory bowel disease and irritable bowel syndrome; clinical vigilance regarding these conditions should be high. Patients with schizophrenia poorly engage with bowel cancer screening programmes, leading to late diagnosis and increased mortality. Clozapine induced constipation is a significant issue for many patients and requires close monitoring. There is a significant burden of gastrointestinal and liver disease amongst patients with schizophrenia. Better levels of support from all members of the medical team are essential to ensure that appropriate, timely care is provided.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Metabolic-associated Fatty Liver Disease (MAFLD) is a term for Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) that highlights its association with components of the Metabolic Syndrome (MetS). MAFLD is becoming a clinically significant problem due to its increasing role in the pathogenesis of cryptogenic cirrhosis of the liver.
Material and methods: The resulting work is a review of the most important information on the risk of MAFLD development in the context of the use of particular groups of psychotropic drugs. The study presents the epidemiology, with particular emphasis on the population of psychiatric patients, pathophysiology and scientific reports analyzing the effect of the psychotropic medications on MAFLD development.
Results: The drugs that can have the greatest impact on the development of MAFLD are atypical antipsychotics, especially olanzapine, and mood stabilizers (MS) - valproic acid (VPA). Their effect is indirect, mainly through dysregulation of organism’s carbohydrate and lipid metabolism.
Conclusions: The population of psychiatric patients is particularly vulnerable to the development of MAFLD. At the root of this disorder lies the specificity of mental disorders, improper dietary habits, low level of physical activity and tendency to addictions. Also, the negative impact of the psychotropic drugs on the systemic metabolism indirectly contributes to the development of MAFLD. In order to prevent fatty liver disease, it is necessary to monitor metabolic and liver parameters regularly, and patients should be screened by ultrasound examination of the liver. There are also important preventive actions from the medical professionals, including education of patients and sensitizing to healthy lifestyle.

Elevated risk of liver steatosis in first-episode psychosis patients: Results from a 3-year prospective study. Schizophr Res 2022; 246:30-38. [PMID: 35696859 DOI: 10.1016/j.schres.2022.06.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2021] [Revised: 01/20/2022] [Accepted: 06/01/2022] [Indexed: 12/09/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiometabolic disorders are largely responsible for excess mortality in schizophrenia. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is increasingly relevant in the development of metabolic risk factors that have been associated with antipsychotic treatment. We aimed to assess the incidence of NAFLD and metabolic disturbances during the first 3 years of antipsychotic treatment in patients with first episode of psychosis (FEP), and compare it with the incidence in a control group. METHODS Data were obtained from patients with psychosis (n = 160) and healthy controls (n = 66) included in the Cantabria's clinical and research program on FEP (PAFIP) from 2012 to 2018. Fatty Liver Index (FLI) was used to estimate the amount of fat in the liver. FLI has been validated for the diagnosis of NAFLD against different standards such as liver ultrasound and biopsy. FLI and metabolic parameters were registered at baseline, 3 months and then yearly for 3 years. RESULTS At the end of the follow-up (3-years), 21.9 % of patients with psychosis developed a FLI ≥ 60, suggestive of liver steatosis, compared to only a 3 % of subjects within the control group (X2 = 12.120; p < 0.001). In the FEP patients group, developing a FLI ≥ 60 was statistically associated with significant increments in metabolic parameters, and with Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) (X2 = 16.151; p < 0.001) and high blood pressure (X2 = 10.654; p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Having a first episode of non-affective psychosis was significantly associated with developing liver steatosis (FLI ≥ 60) in the first three years after initiating antipsychotic treatment. The results highlight the importance of early screening the emergence of NAFLD in schizophrenia patients.

Abstract
(1) Background: The relationship between anxiety and depression in metabolic-dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and cardiovascular (CV) risk remains uncertain. Therefore, we aimed to assess whether anxiety and depression are associated with increased CV risk in MAFLD. (2) Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional observational study involving 77 subjects (39 MAFLD patients, 38 controls), between January and September 2020. Hepatic steatosis was assessed using a combination of hepatic ultrasonography and SteatoTestTM. CV parameters were evaluated using echocardiography and Doppler ultrasound. Self-reported questionnaires pertaining to symptoms of anxiety and depression were used. Anxiety was evaluated using Lehrer Woolfolk Anxiety Symptom Questionnaire (LWASQ), further divided into somatic, behavioral, and cognitive factors, as well as a global score, and depression using Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). (3) Results: MAFLD patients presented significantly higher BDI scores (p-value 0.009) and LWASQ global scores (p-value 0.045) than controls. LWASQ somatic factor was significantly associated with global longitudinal strain (GLS) in linear analysis (−0.0404, p-value = 0.002), while it lost significance following multivariate analysis (−0.0166, p-value = 0.124). Although group (MAFLD vs. controls) predicted BDI, LWASQ global score, and LWASQ somatic factor in linear regression, they lost significance in multivariate analysis. Moreover, the relationship between interventricular septal wall thickness (IVSWT) and BDI, LWASQ global score, and LWASQ somatic factor was significant in linear analysis, but statistical significance disappeared after multivariate analysis. (4) Conclusions: Although MAFLD patients presented increased anxiety and depression risk in univariate analysis, this association lost significance in multivariate analysis. A significant association between GLS levels and LWASQ somatic factor, in addition to IVSWT in anxiety and depression in univariate analysis, was observed, but was lost after multivariate analysis.

Abstract
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease in the world, and is closely related to the high incidence of obesity, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease, and colorectal tumor. Depression is a common mental disorder that is characterized by high incidence, high recurrence rate, high disability rate, and high suicide rate, which has serious harm to patients' physical and mental health, reduce the quality of life of patients. In recent years, as more and more attention has been paid to mental health of NAFLD patients, the relationship between NAFLD and depression has become one of the hot research topics. Studies have shown that the incidence of depression in NAFLD patients is higher than that in non-NAFLD patients, and the incidence of NAFLD in depressed patients is also higher. Some research results have been published on the mechanism of comorbidity between the two. This paper reviews the research progress on the correlation and common mechanism between NAFLD and depression, aiming to lay a foundation for further research on the comorbidities of NAFLD and depression, and provide a basis and research direction for the diagnosis and treatment of patients with both comorbidities.

A Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review on the Prevalence, Risk Factors, and Outcomes of Depression and Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease. Front Med (Lausanne) 2021; 8:691696. [PMID: 34277666 PMCID: PMC8278401 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2021.691696] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2021] [Accepted: 05/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Background and Aims: Both non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and depression have a high global prevalence which is projected to increase further. While studies exploring the association have been done, there are conflicting data. This study aims to assess the prevalence and association between depression and NAFLD. Methods: Medline and Embase were searched from inception to March 3, 2020. Meta-analysis of proportions using the generalized linear mix model was conducted to analyze the pooled prevalence of depression in NAFLD patients. Risk factors for depression in NAFLD patients were evaluated in conventional pairwise meta-analysis. Results: Ten studies involving 2,041,752 NAFLD patients were included. Pooled prevalence of depression was 18.21% (CI: 11.12–28.38%) in patients with NAFLD and 40.68% (CI: 25.11–58.37%) in patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). NAFLD resulted in significantly higher risk of development of depression (OR: 1.29, CI: 1.02–1.64, p = 0.03). NASH patients had a significantly higher risk of depression compared with NAFLD patients (RR: 2.83, CI: 2.41–3.32, p < 0.001). Diabetes, body mass index (BMI), female sex, smoking, and history of pulmonary disease were significant risk factors for depression in NAFLD patients. Conclusion: This study demonstrated a high prevalence of depression in NAFLD patients and a significant association between both conditions. Furthermore, patients with NASH had a significantly higher risk of depression compared with those with NAFLD. Diabetes, BMI, history of lung disease or smoking, and female gender were significant risk factors. Further studies investigating the pathophysiological mechanism underlying depression and NAFLD are needed.
