| Title: | Diabetes Liver Fibrosis Score to Detect Advanced Fibrosis in Diabetics with Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease. |
| Abstract: | Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a risk for advanced fibrosis (AF) in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Recent data suggest that commonly used fibrosis scores (NAFLD fibrosis score [NFS], aspartate to alanine aminotransferase ratio [AST/ALT], AST to platelet ratio index, and Fibrosis-4) may have low sensitivity and negative predictive value to detect AF in patients with diabetes.1,2 The aim of this study was to develop a simple noninvasive fibrosis score to detect AF in patients with diabetes and compare its performance with other fibrosis scores. |
