Özet

Background: Pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (PEI) is found in 30-50% of diabetes mellitus (DM). Insulin resistance is triggering factor in both DM and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Therefore, we aimed to investigate frequency of PEI in NAFLD, and relationship of fecal pancreatic elastase (PE) levels with liver histology and pancreatic fat.
