Abstract:
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become the most common chronic liver disease in the world and seriously threatens human health. So far, change in unhealthy lifestyle is still the most important treatment method for NAFLD. However, traditional lifestyle intervention depends on hospital visits and follow-up, and patients tend to have poor execution and compliance. With the help of the Internet technology, digital therapeutics overcome these disadvantages and has achieved a certain clinical effect in NAFLD patients. This article reviews the application of digital therapeutics in medicine and NAFLD treatment, so as to provide a reference for the treatment of NAFLD.
