Type 2 DIAbeTes With NAFLD: innOvative Biomarkers of Disease progressioN and clInical outComes
About This Trial
Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients are at high-risk for advanced fibrosis (AF) due to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), recently renamed Metabolic dysfunction-Associated Liver Disease (MASLD). Thus, patients with T2DM are recognized as a priority target for the screening of MASLD-related advanced fibrosis and a systematic screening for AF is currently recommended in T2DM patients using FIB-4 and liver stiffness measurement (LSM).The main objective of the project is to investigate the ability of baseline non-invasive biomarkers to discriminate patients with a progression of MASLD from patients without progression of MASLD among patients with T2DM and to investigate the association between clinical outcomes related to the natural evolution of MASLD and T2DM and baseline biomarkers.
