ABSTRACT
Along with the aging process, the spectrum of liver disease changes greatly. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in elderly people lead to low liver function and is also the major cause of extrahepatic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease and malignant tumor. This review provides an overview of the morphological structure and function of the liver in aged people, and discusses the characteristics of weakness, malnutrition and limited movement in the elderly, as well as the current status of multiple diseases and multiple drug use. Finally, this article puts forward some appropriate regimens for the diagnosis and treatment of NAFLD in elderly people to provide a reference for clinical practice.
