Non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases and diabetes in the context of diabetic liver diseases: possibilities of associated therapy

[Reviews]
Igor Veniaminovich Maev; Maksim Osadchuk; Mikhail Osadchuk; Ekaterina Dmitrievna Mironova;

The review considers non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) associated with diabetes mellitus (DM) in the socio-economic, etipathogenetic, prognostic and therapeutic contexts. The presence of common etiopathogenetic factors suggests that NAFLD is an independent predictor of diabetes, aggravating the course of cardiovascular diseases, micro and macroangiopathies. The progression of NAFLD against the background of diabetes requires an assessment of the effectiveness of antidiabetic drugs in achieving remission and regression of inflammatory and fibrotic changes, preventing the development of liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.
