Overview
The estimated annual incidence of non alcoholic liver disease with steatosis in the United States is approximately 9,255 per 100,000 individuals. The prevalence of non-alcoholic liver disease in the United States is estimated to be 10,000 to 24,000 cases per 100,000 individuals annually. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease may occur at any age, but is diagnosed most commonly in patients aged 50 to 60 years. Hepatic steatosis is more prevalent in the hispanics.
One estimate of prevalence is 30% from a systematic review[1]. A similar estimate comes from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2019 study[2].
Epidemiology
Incidence
- The estimated annual incidence of non alcoholic liver disease with steatosis in the United States is approximately 9,255 per 100,000 individuals.
- The estimated annual incidence of non alcoholic liver disease with steatohepatitis in the United States is approximately 265 per 100,000 individuals .
- About 1/3 of america population is expected to have non alcoholic fatty liver disease.[3][4][5][6][7]
Prevalance
- The prevalence of non-alcoholic liver disease in the United States is estimated to be 10,000 to 24,000 cases per 100,000 individuals annually.
- In obese children the prevalence of non-alcoholic liver disease is estimated to be 20,000 to 50,000 cases per 100,000 individuals annually.[8]
- Prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease increases nearly five fold in obese individuals.
Demographics
Age
- Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease may occur at any age, but is diagnosed most commonly in patients aged 50 to 60 years.
Gender
- Men are more commonly affected by non-alcoholic liver disease than women.
- Among women it is more common in post-menopausal women than pre-menopausal.
Race
- Hepatic steatosis is more prevalent in the hispanics (45%) race and followed by caucasians (42% of men, 24% of women) and african-american (24%)
