Background: Insulin resistance is proposed as a causative factor of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in the general population. Reports on NAFLD in type 1 diabetes (T1D) are increasing , but whether insulin resistance is linked to NAFLD in this population needs elucidation. Furthermore, people with T1D are an excellent model to investigate insulin resistance in relation to NAFLD without confounding by autologous insulin production.Aims and Metho...
