“…Recent data show a global prevalence of 25%, with a recent increase that follows the current trends of the obesity epidemic 13 . Among obese patients, the prevalence of NAFLD can exceed 90% 4 , 10 . NAFLD is a spectrum of disease involving simple hepatic steatosis and nonalcoholic steatosis (NASH) with or without fibrosis or cirrhosis.…”
