“…(21,29) Therefore, studies reporting high incidence rates of liver disease progression in NAFLD/NASH had probably unmeasured confounding liver-related risk factors, including alcohol use. (23)(24)(25)(26)(27) For example, alcohol use disorders interacted with all components of the metabolic syndrome in this cohort, including obesity; therefore unreported alcohol use may have contributed to liver disease progression in patients without any risk factor diagnosed. Smoking was a good example of unmeasured confounding.…”

“…In Nottingham, the Scarred Liver Project (SLP) established a commissioned pathway in which the General Practitioner (GP) identifies patients for screening for CLD based on risk factors. Initial pilot studies in 2013 focused on risk factors for CLD and the pathway is applicable to both metabolic and alcohol related disease etiologies (11,16). GPs having direct access to FibroScan R is an integral feature.…”
