Abstract
Endotoxin markers are associated with NAFLD in the general population, but do not have a major effect on NASH and fibrosis. People with modest alcohol consumption have lower serum endotoxin. This may partly explain the lower risk of NAFLD and NASH in modest drinkers in previous observational studies.
