Sign of a different underlying metabolic disease? Associa>on with HCV? Effect on liver disease or course of DM/IR? Link to cardiovascular effects? Effect on response to HCV treatment? Long- term course? BeNer aoer HCV cure? DM, diabetes mellitus; GT, genotype; HCV, hepa>>s C virus; IR, insulin resistance
