Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)

NAFLD is currently the most common liver disorder both in the US and Europe. The fatty liver may progress to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), which markedly increases the risk of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. NAFLD is the hepatic manifestation of the metabolic syndrome and characterizes the majority of patients with type 2 diabetes. 

Objectives

1.       To advance our understanding of the prevalence, diagnosis, pathogenesis, prevention and treatment of NAFLD.

2.       To enable hepatologists and diabetologists and other specialists in cognate disciplines to interact.
