Abstract

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the major causes of abnormal liver function tests in hepatology practice. However, not all patients with NAFLD have increased aminotransferase levels. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical and histologic characteristics of patients with biopsyproven NAFLD showing normal versus elevated aminotransferase levels.
