Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study aims to assess the prevalence of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) among patients diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM). It involves the use of a FibroScan, a non-invasive imaging technique, to evaluate liver health in participants. The study will include adults aged 18 and older who provide informed consent, while excluding those with excessive alcohol use or other liver disease causes. The findings could provide valuable insights into the liver health of T1DM patients.
