The prevalence of NAFLD is increasing gradually, which may progress to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), cirrhosis of liver, and hepatocellular carcinoma. The important association of NAFLD and metabolic disease can lead to endocrinopathy, including thyroid diseases. Methodology: Serologically diagnosed NAFLD patient was evaluated biochemically for liver function and thyroid function to evaluate any association between these two. Results: The study shows female preponderance (63.3%) NAFLD. It was observed that 77.50% were having normal transaminase level and 22.50% had raised transaminase levels (NASH). Subclinical hypothyroidism was present among 18.30%, overt hypothyroidism was 7.50%, and hyperthyroidism was 0.80%. Among the individuals with normal transaminase level, 20.50% were hypothyroid (15.10% subclinical and 5.40% overt), and persons with raised transaminase levels (NASH), 44.44% were hypothyroid (29.63% subclinical and 14.81% overt). Conclusion: This study shows that though there was a female preponderance of NAFLD, raised transaminase was more common among male and so is the hypothyroidism. This may form a matrix to the future study for cause and effect relationship of NAFLD and thyroid diseaseHypothyroidNon-alcoholic fatty liver diseaseSubclinical hypothyroidTransaminaseJournal ArticleIndiaPost Graduate Resident, Department of Medicine, Agartala Government Medical College, Agartala, Tripura, IndiaAssociate Professor,Department of Medicine, Agartala Government Medical College, Agartala, Tripura, IndiaJunior Research Fellowships, Medical Research Center, Agartala Government Medical College, Agartala, Tripura, India
