Study Summary

There is a significant association between autonomic dysfunction and symptoms experienced by NAFLD patients mediated by increased systemic inflammation and insulin resistance, resulting in deteriorating quality of life of affected patients; fatigue and other symptoms drive worsening autonomic dysfunction in these patients. We aim to describe the severity of autonomic dysfunction (AD) in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and the relationship of AD to symptoms experienced by NAFLD patients (such as fatigue, chronic pain, depression, sleep disturbance, and cognitive dysfunction), and to the quality of life of NAFLD patients. We also hope to examine the impact of systemic inflammation and insulin resistance as mediators of manifestations of AD and symptoms experienced by NAFLD patients.
