Clinical Trial Summary

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has been extensively studied in the context of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) due to its higher prevalence and its association with obesity and syndrome metabolic, a well-established risk factor for NAFLD. Although several studies have reported the accumulation of liver fat in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D), the prevalence, etiology, and the consequences of NAFLD in patients with T1D are poorly characterized, requiring more studies in this field. In addition, liver involvement at the metabolic level in patients with T1D raises the differential diagnosis between NAFLD and glycogen hepatopathy (GH), a rare complication associated with the poorly metabolic control of diabetes and probably underdiagnosed, since the ultrasound pattern is the same than the NAFLD. The investigators have designed a cross-sectional observational study with the objective of describing the prevalence of metabolic liver diseases (NAFLD and GH) in the population of patients with T1D in the healthcare area of Hospital del Mar and Hospital de Vilafranca, as well as studying the relationship of these pathologies with the degree of metabolic control, the presence of metabolic syndrome and the presence of micro and macrovascular complications.
