Gut microbiota and human NAFLD: disentangling microbial signatures from metabolic disorders

Nature Reviews Gastroenterology & Hepatology, Published online: 09 March 2020; doi:10.1038/s41575-020-0269-9The gut microbiota has been linked to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), but metabolic confounding factors, such as obesity and diabetes, complicate analysis.
