Complex impacts of gallstone disease on metabolic syndrome and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Patients with gallstone disease (GSD) often have highly co-occurrence with metabolic syndrome (MetS) and Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) both associated with insulin resistance (IR). Meanwhile, highly prevalence of NAFLD was found in patients who received cholecystectomy. However, the associations of GSD with MetS, NAFLD is inconsistent in the published literature. And risk of cholecystectomy on NAFLD is unclear.

Methods

We searched the Medline EMBASE and WOS databases for literature that met our study topic. To be specific, studies with focus on associations between GSD and MetS/NAFLD, and risk evaluation on cholecystectomy and NAFLD incidence were enrolled for further analysis. The random effect model was used to calculate the combined relative ratio (R
