Abstract. Some epidemiological evidence suggests an inverse correlation between non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) frequency and vitamin D levels. Likewise, a beneficial effect of vitamin D on diabetes mellitus (DM) and insulin resistance has been observed, but this is an unsolved issue. Thus, we aimed to investigate the prevalence of hypovitaminosis D in a NAFLD Brazilian population and its association with disease severity and presence of comorbidities. In a cross-sectional study, the clinical, biochemical and histological parameters of 139 NAFLD patients were evaluated according to two different cut-off points of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels (20 ng/mL and 30 ng/mL). The mean age of the population was 56 ± 16 years, most patients were female (83%), 72% had hypertension, 88% dyslipidemia, 46% DM, 98% central obesity, and 82% metabolic syndrome. Serum vitamin D levels were < 30 ng/mL in 78% of the patients, and < 20 ng/mL in 35%. The mean vitamin D level was 24.3 ± 6.8 ng/mL. The comparison between the clinical, biochemical and histological characteristics of the patients according to the levels of vitamin D showed no significant difference. Most patients with NAFLD had hypovitaminosis D, but low vitamin D levels were not related to disease severity and the presence of comorbidities.

Abstract Background interactions between the heart and the liver have been described. The presence and severity of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) was found to be associated with increased QTc interval and subclinical cardiac abnormalities. Aim of the work is to evaluate the electrocardiographic (ECG) and echocardiographic changes in patients with NAFLD and its correlation with disease severity. Patients and Methods this study was conducted on 50 NAFLD patients and 50 controls. Clinical, laboratory, ultrasonographic examinations were done for all included subjects together with liver biopsies. ECG and ECHO were also performed. Results longer corrected QT was found in the NAFLD group in comparison to controls (406.6±26.8 msec and 380.0±24.5 msec respectively). Significant correlation between QTc and liver size, grade of steatosis and NAFLD activity score (NAS) was found. 16% and 8% of NAFLD patients had diastolic and valvular dysfunctions respectively. Conclusion NAFLD is associated with significant QTc prolongation and structural heart changes with significant correlation between QTc and disease severity.
