Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and vascular cognitive impairment / 国际脑血管病杂志

ABSTRACT

In recent years, the relationship between non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) has received increasing attention. The mechanism underlying the relationship between the two diseases remains unclear, which may be associated with neuroinflamation, oxidative stress, cerebrovascular disease, gut microbiota imbalance, and insulin resistance. This article reviews the correlation and potential mechanisms between NAFLD and VCI, with the aim of providing reference for further exploration of their correlation.
