| Core Tip |
The relationship between gallstone disease (gallstones and cholecystectomy, separately) and ultrasonographically diagnosed nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) was analyzed in a large Asian population. The prevalence of gallstone disease increased with the presence of NAFLD, and the prevalence of NAFLD increased with the presence of gallstone disease. Multivariate regression analysis showed that cholecystectomy was associated with NAFLD. However, gallstones were not associated with NAFLD. The independent association between cholecystectomy and NAFLD was still significant after additional adjustment for insulin resistance. This study showed that cholecystectomy, but not gallstones, is independently associated with NAFLD after adjustment for metabolic risk factors. |
