Heterogeneity and homogeneity of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease

DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1001-5256.2018.12.001

  • Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become the most prevalent liver disease in China and the world. However, heterogeneity exists in the pathogenesis, pathology, and clinical phenotype of NAFLD. Metabolism/obesity and gene polymorphisms are involved in the pathogenesis of NAFLD. As for pathology, NAFLD in adults manifests as atypical fibrosis and sinus fibrosis, while NAFLD in children manifests as fibrosis in the portal area and lobular fibrosis in early stage. As for clinical phenotype, some patients may have diabetes or obesity. Such heterogeneity suggests that there are different strategies and methods for clinical diagnosis, treatment, and outcome evaluation.
