Prevalence of NAFLD/NASH in HIV+:

    Maurice, AIDS 2017
Key messages:
1.   NAFLD is projected to become the leading
     cause of ESLD and HCC by 2025
2.   Diagnosing and staging rely on a combination
     of non-invasive approaches to select patients
     for liver biopsy
3.   Lifestyle changes are the cornerstone of
     treatment; initial P3 study results may lead to
     the first approval of OCA for this indication
4.   NAFLD is a leading cause of liver damage in
     HIV+, with some distinct features
