Assessment and management of comorbidities (including cardiovascular disease) in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Clinical liver disease, 1(4), 114–116. doi:10.1002/cld.26https://hdl.handle.net/1805/20552Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common cause of liver disease worldwide. Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, the progressive form of NAFLD, can lead to end‐stage liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma. However, the consequences of NAFLD are not confined to the liver. NAFLD is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and is frequently associated with metabolic syndrome. Thus, there is a pressing need for the diagnosis and management of the comorbidities of NAFLD, including CVD. This review will guide clinicians in the assessment and management of metabolic disease and CVD in patients with NAFLD.en-USPublisher PolicyNonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)Nonalcoholic steatohepatitisEnd‐stage liver diseaseHepatocellular carcinomaCardiovascular diseaseArticle
