[PMID: 38448943 PMCID: PMC10919055 DOI: 10.1186/s12916-024-03315-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2023] [Accepted: 02/23/2024] [Indexed: 03/08/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) shares common pathophysiological mechanisms with type 2 diabetes, making them significant risk factors for type 2 diabetes. The present study aimed to assess the epidemiological feature of type 2 diabetes in patients with NAFLD or MAFLD at global levels. METHODS Published studies were searched for terms that included type 2 diabetes, and NAFLD or MAFLD using PubMed, EMBASE, MEDLINE, and Web of Science databases from their inception to December 2022. The pooled global and regional prevalence and incidence density of type 2 diabetes in patients with NAFLD or MAFLD were evaluated using random-effects meta-analysis. Potential sources of heterogeneity were investigated using stratified meta-analysis and meta-regression. RESULTS A total of 395 studies (6,878,568 participants with NAFLD; 1,172,637 participants with MAFLD) from 40 countries or areas were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled prevalence of type 2 diabetes among NAFLD or MAFLD patients was 28.3% (95% confidence interval 25.2-31.6%) and 26.2% (23.9-28.6%) globally. The incidence density of type 2 diabetes in NAFLD or MAFLD patients was 24.6 per 1000-person year (20.7 to 29.2) and 26.9 per 1000-person year (7.3 to 44.4), respectively. CONCLUSIONS The present study describes the global prevalence and incidence of type 2 diabetes in patients with NAFLD or MAFLD. The study findings serve as a valuable resource to assess the global clinical and economic impact of type 2 diabetes in patients with NAFLD or MAFLD.

Abstract
Portal vein thrombosis (PVT) is a common complication of cirrhosis as a result of portal hypertension and modification in the hemostatic balance. Accumulating evidence now suggests that patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), especially those with advanced forms, have an increased risk of PVT. Hence, we performed a meta-analysis of observational studies to estimate the overall prevalence of PVT in patients with NAFLD and its advanced forms compared with patients with advanced liver diseases from other etiologies. We systematically searched PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science databases from the inception date to December 30th 2022, using predefined keywords, to identify observational studies. Meta-analysis was performed using random-effects modeling. We included five observational studies for a total of 225,571 patients. Of these, 26,840 (11.9%) patients had NAFLD, whereas the PVT prevalence was 8.5% (n = 2,280). When compared with patients with advanced liver diseases from other etiologies, patients with NAFLD and its advanced forms had a higher risk of prevalent PVT (OR 1.34, 100% CI 1.07-1.67 p < 0,01). The between-study heterogeneity was substantial (I2 = 88%). This meta-analysis suggests that compared with patients with advanced liver diseases from other etiologies, patient with NAFLD and its advanced forms had a higher risk of prevalent PVT. Further research is required to understand the complex link between NAFLD/NASH and PVT development.

Abstract
Background Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has previously been linked to several disease states with an impact on patient outcomes. However, clinical evidence on the association between NAFLD and acute cholangitis (AC) remains scarce. We aimed to evaluate the potential association between NAFLD and AC. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study using the US National Inpatient Sample database from 2016 to 2019 to analyze primary AC hospitalizations with NAFLD compared to non-NAFLD in a 1:1 propensity-matched population. Results A total of 1550 AC patients with NAFLD were matched to 1550 AC patients without NAFLD. NAFLD had a higher association with AC when compared to patients without NAFLD, with an odds ratio of 2.33 (95% CI [1.81-3.0], P < 0.001). The length of stay was higher in NAFLD than in non-NAFLD (4 vs 3 days, P < 0.001). The median inpatient charges in NAFLD were also higher than in the non-NAFLD cohort ($36,182 vs $35,244, P < 0.001). Inpatient mortality was higher in NAFLD compared to non-NAFLD (1.6% vs 0%, P < 0.001). There was an increased prevalence of portal vein thrombosis (3.2% vs 0%), acute kidney injury (24.2% vs 17.7%), sepsis (3.2% vs 1.6%), mechanical ventilation (3.2% vs 0%), and percutaneous cholecystostomy tube insertion (3.2% vs 1.6%) in NAFLD compared to non-NAFLD (P < 0.05). NAFLD also had a higher association with acute cholecystitis, with an odds ratio of 3.70 (95% CI [3.19-4.29], P < 0.001). Conclusions This study showed an association between NALFD and AC, resulting in increased length of stay, hospital charges, and inpatient mortality. Underlying NAFLD also increases acute complications of AC.

Abstract
Abundant research has associated nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) with atherosclerosis, but very few reports have evaluated the association between NAFLD and venous thromboembolism. We aimed to investigate the association between NAFLD and pulmonary embolism (PE) in hospitalized patients. In this retrospective case-control study, we included consecutive patients from 2 university-affiliated hospitals who were referred for CT pulmonary angiograms for a suspected PE. Patients with a history of excessive alcohol consumption, chronic liver diseases or cirrhosis were excluded. The imaging studies of the entire cohort were reviewed by 2 expert radiologists who confirmed the diagnosis of PE and examined the liver to detect and grade hepatic steatosis. Accordingly, patients were categorized into NAFLD patients and non-NAFLD controls. Patient demographics, medical history, hospitalization details as well as patients' outcomes were documented. Multivariate analysis was performed to identify predictors for developing PE and hazard ratios with corresponding 95% confidence intervals were estimated. A total of 377 patients (101 with NAFLD and 276 controls) were included. NAFLD patients had significantly higher BMI values (33.16 ± 6.78 vs 26.81 ± 5.6; P < .001) and prevalence of diabetes (41 (40%) vs 85 (30.8%); P = .03). The prevalence of PE was significantly higher in the NAFLD group (80 (79.2%) vs 147 (53.3%), P < .001). In a multivariate analysis, older age, recent surgery or trauma, active malignancy, smoking, and NAFLD (HR ratio = 4.339, P < .0001 and 95% CI = 2.196-8.572) were independently associated with PE development. Patients with NAFLD were associated with an increased risk of developing PE independent of other classical risk factors for PE.

Abstract
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is closely related to insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity. It is considered a multisystem disease and there is a strong association with cardiovascular disease and arterial hypertension, which interfere with changes in the coagulation system. Coagulation disorders are common in patients with hepatic impairment and are dependent on the degree of liver damage. Through a review of the literature, we consider and discuss possible disorders in the coagulation cascade and fibrinolysis, endothelial dysfunction and platelet abnormalities in patients with NAFLD.
