    Within the histology of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), the mortality and prognosis of liver and non-liver outcomes are not yet clear
    .

    Recently, a research article was published in the top medical journal NEJM.
    Researchers prospectively followed up a multicenter patient population, including the complete histological map of NAFLD
    .
    The researchers aimed to compare the incidence of death and other outcomes in patients with different baseline histological characteristics


    .


    A total of 1773 adults with NAFLD were followed up for a median of 4 years in the study
    .
    All-cause mortality increases with the increase in fibrosis stages (0.


    32 deaths per 100 people per year in F0 to F2 [no, mild or moderate fibrosis], 0.


    Compared with patients with F0 to F2 fibrosis, patients with F4 fibrosis with type 2 diabetes (7.
    53 vs.
    4.
    45 per 100 person-years), the estimated glomerular filtration rate is reduced by more than 40% (2.
    98 per 100 person-years) vs.
    0.
    97 events) also have a higher incidence
    .
    The incidence of cardiac events and non-liver cancer is similar in each stage of fibrosis

    In this prospective study involving NAFLD patients, fibrosis stages F3 and F4 were associated with an increased risk of liver-related complications and death
