Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, cardiovascular system and kidney function in young adults

Abstract
Over the past four decades, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become the most common chronic liver disease, believed to affect more than 25% of adults worldwide. Unless specific testing is done to detect NAFLD, the disease is typically silent until advanced and potentially irreversible liver impairment occurs. NAFLD is associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular and kidney dysfunction, independent of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and other common risk factors. However, the mechanisms underlying this association remain largely unexplored. An increase in the incidence of NAFLD among young individuals is emphasized. However, despite the global prevalence of NAFLD throughout the world, prevalence among young remains unclear. The purpose of this review is to analyze the main cardiometabolic risk factors and NAFLD and association with cardiovascular disease and kidney dysfunction in young adults.
