Abstract
Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a prevalent cause of liver disease across the globe. An increasing number of individuals have recently shown a substantial correlation between this liver condition and various central nervous system (CNS) problems. Cognitive impairment, hippocampal-dependent memory impairment, and mood disorders (in particular, depression and anxiety) are all CNS dysfunctions associated with NAFLD. Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the socio-demographic features and comorbidities of NAFLD patients. Methods: Patients whose diagnosed with NAFLD by clinical history and examination, laboratory investigations and non-invasive techniques (such as abdominal ultrasound) were evaluated for socio-demographic features. Results: The mean age of patients with comorbid depression and NAFLD was 42.2 (SD±13.73), while the NAFLD patients without depression mean age was 42.6 (SD± 13.2) and the control group was 41.7(SD± 14.3). Comorbid depression and NAFLD were common among female patients who live in rural areas. Conclusion: The profile of patients with depression and NAFLD is characterized by sociodemographic factors.
