Abstract
Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is highly prevalent worldwide. Recent clinical and experimental studies have addressed the association between cholecystectomy and MAFLD, confirming that cholecystectomy is an independent risk factor for MAFLD. In this review, we describe the epidemiologic evidence that links cholecystectomy to MAFLD, and discuss the possible mechanisms behind these connections, in order to unveil the metabolic and chronobiologic signals conveyed by the waves of the bile acid enterohepatic circulation.Entities:
