Abstract

Aliment Pharmacol Ther 2011;33:525–540 Summary: Background Non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become the most prevalent cause of liver disease in Western countries. The development of non‐alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and fibrosis identifies an at‐risk group with increased risk of cardiovascular and liver‐related deaths. The identification and management of this at‐risk group remains a clinical challenge. Aim To perform a systematic review of the established and emerging strategies for the diagnosis and staging of NAFLD. Methods Relevant research and review articles were identified by searching PubMed, MEDLINE and EMBASE. Results There has been a substantial development of non‐invasive risk scores, biomarker panels and radiological modalities to identify at‐risk patients with NAFLD without recourse to liver biopsy on a routine basis. These modalities and algorithms have improved significantly in their diagnosis and staging of fibrosis and NASH in patients with NAFLD, and will likely impact on the number of patients undergoing liver biopsy. Conclusions Staging for NAFLD can now be performed by a combination of radiological and laboratory techniques, greatly reducing the requirement for invasive liver biopsy.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
