ABSTRACT
Recent studies have found that visfatin is involved in lipid metabolism in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and about 25% of NAFLD patients have thyroid dysfunction. It has also been found that visfatin is involved in autoimmune regulation through the autocrine or paracrine pathways, which is associated with the involvement of the thyroid gland in autoimmune regulation of the body. This article preliminarily explores the association of visfatin with thyroid dysfunction in NAFLD patients and points out that the measurement of visfatin may help with the early identification of thyroid dysfunction in NAFLD patients.
