metadata.value: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is increasingly recognized as an important problem that can
  lead to cirrhosis and hepatic failure. It may be the most prevalent liver disease. However,knowledge
  of the epidemiology is limited. These findings encourage to conduct a larger sample size study to
  evaluate the real prevalence of NAFLD in the Russian population. It is important to know current
  prevalence of NAFLD. DIREG 2 study was performed under umbrella of leading Russian professional
  societies in partnership with Sanofi Russia. Objective: to estimate the prevalence of NAFLD within
  the general practitioner’s and gastroenterologist’s patient flow. It is important to know current prevalence
  of NAFLD in North-West region and to compare with DIREG 2 results. Materials and methods.
  Epidemiologic, observational, multicenter study assessing the prevalence of NAFLD among patients
  outpatient practice. A total of 50 145 patients (3769 in North-West region) including those suspected of having NAFLD criteria were enrolled in the Program. The investigators were qualified doctors
  (GPs \ therapist’s \ gastroenterologists), providing outpatient care for the population. The epidemiological
  data were obtained, recorded during two routine patient visits to investigating centers. Study
  results. Percentage of patients with revealed NAFLD within the patient flow primary or consistently
  coming to selected doctors for any reason including those suspected of having NAFLD was 37,3 %
  in Russia vs 49,1 % in North West Region. Conclusion. Prevalence of NAFLD among patient flow of
  doctors in Russia is quite high. It has been revealed a high prevalence of NANCFLD within the patient
  flow primary or consistently coming to selected by doctors for any reason. Refs 55. Figs 4. Table 1.
