Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and vice versa, and both conditions are associated with an increased risk of fractures and altered bone turnover. Although patients with NAFLD typically suffer from decreased bone mineral density (BMD), T2D is associated with normal to high BMD. The pathophysiology is uncertain but may involve the gut-bone axis.
