Abstract
BACKGROUND Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are closely related and mutually contribute to the disease's development. There are many treatment options available to patients. We provide a comprehensive overview of the evidence on the treatment effects of several potential interventions for NAFLD with T2DM. METHODS This systematic review and network meta-analysis included searches of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science from inception to June 30, 2023, for randomised controlled trials of treatment of NAFLD with T2DM. We performed Bayesian network meta-analyses to summarise effect estimates of comparisons between interventions. We applied the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) frameworks to rate all comparative outcomes' certainty in effect estimates, categorise interventions, and present the findings. This study was registered with PROSPERO, CRD42022342373. RESULTS Four thousand three hundred and sixty-nine records were retrieved from the database and other methods, of which 24 records were eligible for studies enrolling 1589 participants. Eight clinical indicators and 14 interventions were finally in focus. Referring to the lower surface under the cumulative ranking curves (SUCRA) and the league matrix table, exenatide and liraglutide, which are also glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs), showed excellent potential to reduce liver fat content, control glycemia, reduce body weight, and improve liver function and insulin resistance. Exenatide was more effective in reducing glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) (mean difference (MD) 0.32, 95%CI 0.12 to 0.52), lowering BMI (MD 0.81, 95%CI 0.18 to 1.45), and lowering alanine transaminase (ALT) (MD 10.96, 95%CI 5.27 to 16.66) compared to liraglutide. However, this evidence was assessed as low certainty. Omega-3 was the only intervention that did not have a tendency to lower HbA1c, with standard-treatment (STA-TRE) as reference (MD - 0.17, 95%CI - 0.42 to 0.07). Glimepiride is the only intervention that causes an increase in ALT levels, with standard-treatment (STA-TRE) as reference (MD - 11.72, 95%CI - 17.82 to - 5.57). Based on the available evidence, the treatment effects of pioglitazone, dapagliflozin, and liraglutide have a high degree of confidence. CONCLUSIONS The high confidence mandates the confident application of these findings as guides for clinical practice. Dapagliflozin and pioglitazone are used for glycaemic control in patients with NAFLD combined with T2DM, and liraglutide is used for weight loss therapy in patients with abdominal obesity. The available evidence does not demonstrate the credibility of the effectiveness of other interventions in reducing liver fat content, visceral fat area, ALT, and insulin resistance. Future studies should focus on the clinical application of GLP-1Ras and the long-term prognosis of patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the relationship between non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS A total of 1168 patients with T2DM were divided into the non-CKD and CKD groups, and the difference in the prevalence of NAFLD was compared. The differences in serum creatinine (SCr) and urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) levels were compared between the non-NAFLD and NAFLD groups. Patients with T2DM were divided into three groups according to their UACR levels (UACR < 30 mg/g [U1 group]; UACR ≤ 30 mg/g to < 300 mg/g [U2 group]; and UACR ≥ 300 mg/g [U3 group]) or estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) levels (≥ 90 mL/min [G1 group]; eGFR ≤ 60 mL/min to < 90 mL/min [G2 group]; and eGFR < 60 mL/min (G3 group]). The difference in the prevalence and risks of NAFLD in the different UACR or eGFR level groups was analyzed. RESULTS The prevalence of NAFLD in the CKD group was higher than that in the non-CKD group (63.5% vs 50.5%, p < 0.001). The SCr and UACR levels in the NAFLD group were higher than those in the non-NAFLD group (both p<0.05). The prevalence of NAFLD in the U3 group (75.6%) was higher than that in the U1 (50.5%, p < 0.05) and U2 (60.1%, p < 0.05) groups, and the prevalence of NAFLD in the U2 group (60.1%) was higher than that in the U1 group (50.5%, p < 0.05). The risk of NAFLD in the U3 group was higher than that in the U2 group (odds ratio [OR] = 3.032 and 1.473). Despite adjusting the parameters further, the NAFLD risk in the U3 group remained higher than that in the U2 group (OR = 1.660 and 2.342). CONCLUSION The risk of NAFLD in patients with T2DM is closely related to CKD.
