ABSTRACT
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a metabolic disease which can progress to liver fibrosis, liver cirrhosis, and liver cancer. Sarcopenia is an age-related disease and metabolic factors play an important role in its pathogenesis. NAFLD and sarcopenia share a variety of metabolic pathophysiological mechanisms. Further studies are needed to determine whether there is an association between NAFLD and sarcopenia and whether they are predisposing factors or risk factors for disease progression for each other, in order to help with better prevention, treatment, and prognostic evaluation of the two diseases in clinical practice. This article reviews the independent association between NAFLD and sarcopenia.
