Filter by:The aim of this study was to examine the association between metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) in participants who had undergone cholecystectomy and those who had not undergone cholecystectomy. MAFLD is defined as hepatic steatosis(with ultrasonography) entity in addition to the presence of overweight or obesity, diabetes mellitus, or evidence of metabolic dysfunction. In this way, the long-term effects of cholecystectomy surgeries, which are commonly performed in the society and thought to be harmless, will be evaluated.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if serum ferritin levels has correlated with metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease（MASLD）. It will also learn about the effect of lifestyle intervention on serum ferritin levels and MASLD. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does serum ferritin levels predict the occurence and development of MASLD? Does liver iron overload has correlated with liver fat deposition? Does serum ferritin levels and MASLD got some degree of remission after weight lose with lifestyle intervention? Researchers will compare the liver fatty, liver iron depositon and serum ferritin levels after lifestyle intervention using self pre-and post-control . Participants will: Receive the lifestyle intervention in outpatient. Visit the clinic once after 6 months for checkups and tests. Keep a diary of their diet.
This was a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical study aiming to assess the effect of a food for special medical purposes with functional release containing calcium butyrate, zinc gluconate and vitamin D3 on liver steatosis in individuals with NAFLD and metabolic syndrome
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease, ranging from pure steatosis to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and ultimately to liver cirrhosis. In order to study the association between NAFLD and nephrolithiasis while minimizing the confounding effect of metabolic syndrome, we investigated the impact of different degrees of NAFLD severity on potential risk factors for stone formation.
The current study aim was to conduct placebo-controlled randomize clinical trial to assess the short-term efficacy and safety of postbiotics on hepatic fat content as measured by biochemichal hepatic steatosis indeces, serum lipid profile, transaminases activity and chronic systemic inflammatory markers in MASLD patients. The study will include 3 periods. Screening period of up to 1 weeks to assess the eligibility to inclusion/exclusion criteria. Treatment period for 3 month where the participants will receive a twice daily oral dose of postbiotics (cell lysate and DNA fragments of the probiotic strain L. rhamnosus DV - NRRLB-68023) at the assigned dose of 100mg or placebo in capsules. During this period monthly phone contacts will be done for assessment of compliance and safety concerns. Follow-up period of up to 3 month.
Background: Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is an advanced form of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) that can precipitate to advanced fibrosis and leads to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Many patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) had histological evidence of steatosis and met the histological criteria for NASH. Matrix metalloproteinase-14 (MMP-14) is a type 1 transmembrane proteinase expressed in liver fibrosis and is involved in the development of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. Hepatic dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) expression in NAFLD may be directly associated with hepatic lipogenesis and liver injury. Some studies showed the beneficial effect of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DDP-4) inhibitors in NAFLD/NASH for their role in improving hepatic glucose metabolism. Vildagliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor, could be promising therapeutic agents for NAFLD/NASH. To the best of our knowledge, no previous study assessed the role of DPP-4 inhibitors in adolescent patients with T1DM and NASH. Objectives: This randomized-controlled clinical trial assessed the impact of the oral DPP-4 inhibitor, vildagliptin, as an add-on therapy on NASH in adolescents with T1DM as well as its effect on glycemic control, lipid profile, MMP-14 levels and CIMT as a marker for subclinical atherosclerosis. Methods: This study included 60 adolescents with T1DM and NASH with a mean age 15.6 ± 2.08 years and disease duration ≥ 5 years. Forty age- and sex-matched healthy subjects with a mean age 14.9 ± 3.2 years were enrolled as healthy controls to compare MMP-14 levels. T1DM patients were randomly assigned to receive oral vildagliptin (50 mg daily) with lunch meal for six months or not. Fasting and 2 hours post-prandial blood glucose levels, HbA1c, liver function tests, fasting lipid profile, hepatic steatosis index and triglyceride glucose (TyG) index were assessed. MMP-14 levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay among all patients and healthy controls. CIMT was assessed using Doppler ultrasound and transient elastography with controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) was performed to assess liver stiffness and steatosis stage.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate which exercise regimen is more effective in improving non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in a young population. The primary questions it aims to answer are: Does aerobic training, resistance training, or a combination of both help improve liver function and glycemic and lipid parameters in NAFLD patients? Which of these three exercise regimens is more effective in improving the aforementioned parameters? Is the improvement in liver function related to bile acid metabolism? Participants will: Engage in physical exercise 4-5 times per week for two consecutive months, following a predefined exercise regimen. Have blood samples collected to test for glucose, lipids, liver function, and other parameters before starting the exercise program and after two months of completing the regimen.
- Objectives: Primary objective_To evaluate the safety and tolerability after single oral administration of the investigational product (IP), J2H-1702 in healthy female subjects. Secondary objective_To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) characteristics after single oral administration of the IP, J2H-1702 in healthy female subjects.
1. Research Purpose: To evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic properties of J2H-1702 (a candidate for treatment of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis) in healthy men. 2. Design: A dose block-randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, single- and multiple dosing, dose-escalation phase 1 clinical trial
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease. It comprises a wide spectrum of disorders that range from simple steatosis to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), advanced fibrosis, related cirrhosis, and even hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
