A preliminary report about the detection of ventricular repolarisation in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

Objectives: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a multisystem disease which can affect the cardiovascular system as well. We conducted this study to determine the cardiac effects of NAFLD such as conduction of impulse and ventricular repolarisation on electrocardiography (ECG).

Methods: In this study, we recruited patients with risk factors for NAFLD (group I; n = 23) and NAFLD patients (group II; n = 74) from Shar Hospital in Sulaimani City, Iraq.
