Аннотация
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is now identified as a hepatic sign of meta- bolic syndrome and is the most frequent cause of chronic liver disease in all ages. It is assumed that a genetic predisposition associated with epigenetic factors participates in the evolution of this condi- tion. Visceral obesity and insulin resistance (IR) have always been considered the most important causative factors of Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) and NAFLD, but currently, the interaction be- tween genetic heritage and environmental factors is increasingly considered fundamental in the genesis of metabolic disorders associated with NAFLD. In fact, in patients with NAFLD, insulin resistance, arterial hypertension, abdominal obesity, dyslipidemia and reduced intestinal permeability have often been found, as well as a higher prevalence of coronary artery disease, obstructive sleep apnea, polycystic ovary syndrome and osteopenia, which define a MetS framework. Early diagnosis is needed to prevent disease progression through primarily lifestyle interventions. Unfortunately, at present, there are no molecules recommended for pediatric patients. However, several new drugs are in clinical trials. For this reason, targeted studies on the interaction between genetics and envi- ronmental factors involved in the development of NAFLD and MetS and on the pathogenetic mech- anisms that determine the evolution in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), should be implement- ed. Therefore, it is desirable that future studies may be useful in identifying patients at risk of de- veloping NAFLD and MetS early.
