Clinical Trial Summary

assessment of NAFLD among diabetic, pre-diabetic and non diabetic participants Using Non Invasive Methods.And correlation between lab and radiological methods .


Clinical Trial Description

Non alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a major public health problem. with 10-30% prevalence worldwide , and is a common cause of chronic liver disease and the third most common cause of liver transplantation . NAFLD can range from simple steatosis in the absence of inflammation to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, liver cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) . Major risk factors for NAFLD include obesity, hypertension , hyperlipidemia , hypertriglyceridemia , and type-2-diabetes mellitus (T2DM) . The gold standard in the diagnosis of NAFLD is liver biopsy; however, it is sometimes associated with some complications that include bleeding, bile leak, infection, and other potential life-threatening issues. The accuracy of the MRI, computed tomography, and ultrasound imaging in diagnosis of NAFLD is low; hence, Fibroscan was introduced . This is a non-invasive, simple-to-perform imaging modality with high accuracy to assess liver stiffness and hepatic fat deposition. Non-invasive diagnosis is based on clinical and biochemical markers, scoring models, and algorithms of methods which have sufficient sensitivity, specificity, and reproducibility . ;
