Paying attention to the resolute link between diabetes and the liver

The Hindu  

The prevalence of diabetes is growing rapidly all over the world and in India. Moreover, the excess fat in the blood circulation also gets deposited in the liver and this is called ‘Fatty Liver’. Epidemiological studies done by us at the Madras Diabetes Research Foundation have shown that over 50% of people with type 2 diabetes have some degree of fatty liver. Indeed, ‘diabetes care’ is slowly evolving into ‘metabolic care’ with the liver taking centre stage in this, along with the heart and kidney. Recently the close association of metabolic syndrome and NAFLD has been recognised and internationally, the term NALFD is being replaced with ‘Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease’.
