Prevalence of High and Moderate Risk of Liver Fibrosis Among Patients With Diabetes at a Noncommunicable Diseases (NCD) Clinic in a Primary Healthcare Center in Northern India.

Background Diabetes is a known entity that contributes to increased incidence and progress of liver fibrosis. Despite the integration of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) into the NP-NCD program (National Programme for Prevention and Control of Cancer, Diabetes, Cardiovascular Diseases, and Stroke [NPCDCS]), screening individuals in primary healthcare settings for liver fibrosis remains uncommon. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of the risk of liver fibrosis in individuals with diabetes.
