Overview

Fatty liver disease is a condition characterized by the abnormal accumulation of fat within liver cells. It is broadly divided into alcohol-related fatty liver disease and non-alcoholic (or metabolic-associated) fatty liver disease, the latter being closely linked to obesity, type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, and abnormal blood lipids. In its early stage, simple fat accumulation, or steatosis, may cause few or no symptoms, but in some people it progresses to inflammation and liver-cell injury, known as steatohepatitis, and then to fibrosis, cirrhosis, and an increased risk of liver failure and liver cancer. Because it often advances silently, fatty liver disease is detected through imaging, blood tests, and measures of liver stiffness, and genetic factors as well as lifestyle contribute to who develops and progresses with the disease. Management centers on addressing the underlying metabolic drivers through weight loss, dietary change, and control of diabetes and lipids. Spleen And Liver Research publishes peer-reviewed work relevant to these themes, including studies on single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with alimentary fatty liver disease, the magnitude and trends of chronic liver disease, liver stiffness assessment in cirrhosis, and vitamin D deficiency in chronic liver disease. This page gathers peer-reviewed, open-access research relevant to fatty liver disease.
