Core Tip
Core Tip: Co-existence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) synergistically act to increase the risk of adverse hepatic and extra hepatic outcomes. T2DM is an established risk factor for NAFLD progression to NASH, advanced fibrosis or cirrhosis. Timely intervention in these populations could have a significant effect on liver- related outcomes. Newer dual and pan-PPAR agonists show promising results in patients with NAFLD/NASH and T2DM. Incretin-based therapy for the treatment of NAFLD is currently being explored. With better understanding of the complex interaction between T2DM and NAFLD, PPAR agonists and incretin-based therapies are likely to provide more effective approach of NAFLD management in T2DM.
