*Age-specific, sex-specific and/or ethnicity-specific values are specified in the online supplement.

CHD, coronary heart disease; HCC, hepatocellular carcinoma; NASH, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis; T2D, type 2 diabetes.

Costs are population based, meaning that they include those who do not get care. CHD, T2D, overweight and obesity prevalence are not varied in the sensitivity analyses.
