Core Tip
Core Tip: The objective of this study was to assess the current landscape of research in the field of diet and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) by employing bibliometric and visual analyses. This study is the first to utilize Scopus data for visualizing network mapping in a novel bibliometric examination of diet and NAFLD studies. Post-2017, the primary areas of focus were “dietary interventions for NAFLD” and “inflammation and oxidative stress associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and its relationship with diet”. These findings indicate a significant level of attention toward research in this domain, reflecting its alignment with the latest scientific advancements. We argue that our study offers valuable insights to scholars, dietitians, and medical practitioners, emphasizing the importance of further investigation into dietary interventions and NAFLD.
