Abstract

Introduction: We previously showed that a third of non-severely obese patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are at risk of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), that in the presence of daytime somnolence was independently associated with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and fibrosis severity.
