Visceral fat volume predicts new-onset type 2 diabetes in patients with chronic hepatitis C

Abstract Ninety seven patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) and 72 with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) were enrolled. Increased visceral fat area (VFA) was associated with high values of HbA1c. The variables associated with a high risk of new-onset diabetes had a VFA > 101 cm2 in CHC...

Zusammenfassung:	Abstract Ninety seven patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) and 72 with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) were enrolled. Increased visceral fat area (VFA) was associated with high values of HbA1c. The variables associated with a high risk of new-onset diabetes had a VFA > 101 cm2 in CHC, but not in NAFLD.
