James M. Paik, Seema Mir, Saleh A. Alqahtani, Youssef Younossi, Janus P. Ong, Zobair M. Younossi – 7 July 2021 – Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a common but complex chronic liver disease, driven by environmental and genetic factors. We assessed metabolic and dietary risk factor associations with NAFLD liver mortality using the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2017 data. NAFLD liver deaths were calculated (per 100,000) as age‐standardized rates (ASRs) from 195 countries and territories (21 GBD regions; 7 GBD superregions).
