Figure 1 The cumulative risk (Kaplan-Meier) of chronic nonalcoholic liver disease including cirrhosis among veteran patients hospitalized during 1985 to 1990 and a follow-up period that ended in October No patient had acute or chronic liver disease recorded before, during, or 1 year after their index hospitalization. The maximum follow-up duration was 12 years and 8 months. The upper line represents chronic nonalcoholic liver disease recorded after the first year of index hospitalization in patients with diabetes, whereas the lower line represents the same outcome in patients without diabetes. Chronic nonalcoholic liver disease was significantly higher in patients with diabetes (P < ). Gastroenterology , DOI: ( /j.gastro )

The maximum follow-up duration was 12 years and 8 months. The upper line represents hepatocellular carcinoma recorded after the first year of index hospitalization in patients with diabetes, whereas the lower line represents the same outcome in patients without diabetes.
