About this study

Official title: Association of Light-to-moderate Alcohol Consumption With Risk of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Individuals With Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

This study explored the cross-sectional and prospective associations between light-to-moderate alcohol consumption (LMAC) and risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in individuals with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

Medical subject headings
Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Light-to-moderate alcohol consumption (LMAC) and risk of prevalent type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)

    Fatty liver was assessed by ultrasound. T2DM was defined as the presence of any of the following conditions based on American Diabetes Association criteria: (1) fasting plasma glucose (FPG) ≥ 7.0 mmol/L; (2) hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ≥ 6.5%; (3) self-reported clinician-diagnosed T2DM.

    Measured: cross-sectional analyses in 2009

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. LMAC and incident risk of T2DM

    Fatty liver was assessed by ultrasound. T2DM was defined as the presence of any of the following conditions based on American Diabetes Association criteria: (1) fasting plasma glucose (FPG) ≥ 7.0 mmol/L; (2) hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ≥ 6.5%; (3) self-reported clinician-diagnosed T2DM.

    Measured: 9-year cohort observation
