Background and Objectives. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disorder in western countries. Although the etiology of NAFLD is unknown, insulin resistance is a key mechanism of lipid deposition in hepatocytes leading to steatosis and potentially steatohepatitis in patients with diabetes. These factors accelerate the progression of atherosclerosis and development of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Methods and Results. In this prospective cohort study, 1197 patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) were divided into two groups (360 patients with NAFLD and 847 without NAFLD) and were followed for a median of 5 years for the incidence of CVD. Cox regression analysis was used to assess the association between NAFLD, liver enzyme level, aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio index (APRI), and the incidence risk of CVD and its subgroups (i.e., myocardial infarction, chronic heart disease, coronary artery bypass grafting, and percutaneous coronary intervention). There was a significant positive association between CVD incidence and NAFLD (HR = 1.488, 95% CI = 1.041–2.124, p value = 0.029). Although patients with NAFLD had higher levels of ALT and AST levels (p value = |
