ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND & AIMS:
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), now known as metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), is closely associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Our aim was to estimate the most recent global prevalence of NAFLD/MASLD, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), now known as metabolic dysfunction associated steatohepatitis (MASH), advanced fibrosis, and mortality among patients with T2D.METHODS:
We systematically searched PubMed and Ovid MEDLINE for terms including NAFLD, NASH, and T2D published in 1990-2023 according to PRISMA. The meta-analysis was conducted using a random-effects model. Assessment of bias risk used the Joanna Briggs Institute appraisal tool.RESULTS:
From 3134 studies included in the initial search, 123 studies (N = 2,224,144 patients with T2D) were eligible. Another 12 studies (N = 2733 T2D patients with liver biopsy) were eligible for histologic assessments. The global pooled prevalence of NAFLD/MASLD among patients with T2D was 65.33% (95% confidence interval, 62.35%-68.18%). This prevalence increased from 55.86% (42.38%-68.53%) in 1990-2004 to 68.81% (63.41%-73.74%) in 2016-2021 (P = .073). The highest NAFLD/MASLD prevalence among T2D patients was observed in Eastern Europe (80.62%, 75.72%-84.73%), followed by the Middle East (71.24%, 62.22%-78.84%), and was lowest in Africa (53.10%, 26.05%-78.44%). Among patients with liver biopsy data, the global pooled prevalence of NASH/MASH, significant fibrosis, and advanced fibrosis was 66.44% (56.61%-75.02%), 40.78% (24.24%-59.70%), and 15.49% (6.99%-30.99%), respectively. The pooled all-cause mortality was 16.79 per 1000 person-years (PY) (10.64-26.40), 4.19 per 1000 PY (1.34-7.05) for cardiac-specific mortality; 6.10 per 1000 PY (0.78-4.88) for extrahepatic cancer-specific mortality; and 2.15 per 1000 PY (0.00-2.21) for liver-specific mortality.CONCLUSIONS:
The prevalence of NAFLD/MASLD among T2D is high and growing. The majority of NAFLD/MASLD patients with T2D have NASH/MASH, and a significant proportion have advanced fibrosis.
