Abstract: 

The present study was designed to investigate the variations in fasting blood sugar (FBS) and glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1C) levels in fatty liver with or without alcohol intake. The main factors responsible for developing fatty liver were alcohol intake, type 2 diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia and obesity. Fatty liver disease has been broadly classified into alcoholic fatty liver disease (AFLD) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Extensive variations in FBS and HbA1C levels have been reported in fatty liver. It was observed that FBS and HbA1C levels were increased in NAFLD and AFLD patients as compared to the controls. It was observed that change in FBS and HbA1C levels in all the groups of NAFLD when compared to each other were not significant (p>0.0001). All the subjects were evaluated for FBS and HbA1C.
