Filter by:The investigators will conduct an open label, experimental medicine study exploring the diurnal patterns of hepatic lipid metabolism in NAFLD and non-NAFLD participants (determined by Transient elastography (TE) with controlled attenuation parameter (CAP)). We will also determine whether the diurnal patterns of lipid metabolism in NAFLD participants can be modified using lifestyle and weight loss intervention. Fourteen participants without NAFLD will have morning and evening metabolic investigations (visit 1M & 1E) to assess for changes in lipid flux pathways across the course of the day. After morning and evening investigations their involvement in the clinical study will then end. Seventeen NAFLD participants will also have identical baseline morning and evening investigation after which they will be enrolled into a 12-week lifestyle and weight loss programme. After 12-weeks, all 17 participants with NAFLD will have a follow up CAP, and morning and evening metabolic investigations (visit 2M & 2E).
In Taiwan, HBV infection is endemic in the adult population. With the westernization of eating habit and lifestyle, metabolic syndrome and related non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases (NAFLD, newly proposed as metabolic dysfunction associated fatty liver diseases, MAFLD) has become another important health issue. It is therefore common to encounter subjects with concurrent MAFLD and HBV infection in HBV endemic countries. This project will study the clinical data of patients with concurrent MAFLD and HBV, and aim to explore the impact of exercise intervention on the hepatic fatty infiltration, alteration of gut microbiota and HBV replication status in this group of patients. The research strategies will include (1) improving fatty liver and metabolic syndrome in subjects with concurrent MAFLD and HBV; and (2) exploring the changes of HBV replication and intestinal microflora in patients with concurrent HBV and MAFLD after exercise intervention.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial with adults is to discuss the effectiveness of the nutritionist's educational interventions in users diagnosed with NAFLD, compared to the usual medical follow-up of users treated at the Hepatic Steatosis Ambulatory of the Complexo Hospital de Clinicas of the Federal University of Paraná (CHCUFPR) in adults diagnosed with liver disease. The sample will consist of patients routinely monitored at the Hepatic Steatosis outpatient clinic diagnosed with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Patients allocated in the study will be randomized 1:1 and followed up for one (1) year, intervention group (IG) with nutritionist consultations, nutritional diagnosis and educational intervention with agreement on individual goals. Patients in the Control Group (CG) will maintain the usual outpatient care. Participants will have clinical, anthropometric and sociodemographic data collected and food consumption data will be carried out during the nutrition consultations, as well as the application of the NLS-Br Nutritional Literacy questionnaire to verify literacy. During the nutrition consultation, a 24-hour recall will be carried out to collect information on food consumption. They will also be carried out as monthly telephone contacts or messages via instant messaging application, to solve the doubts of the participants and notify them of upcoming meetings, and subsequent comparison of the LN in the target population. All interventions will be recorded in specific instruments for this purpose. Researchers will compare intervention group (IG) and Control Group (CG) and to see the effects of nutritional intervention. The expected primary outcome will be weight loss of 5% to 10% of the initial weight and the secondary outcomes will be: reduction in abdominal circumference and body mass index, and improvement in the levels of liver transaminases. Data will be analyzed with descriptive and inferential statistics.
The goal of this clinical study is to compare the therapeutic effect of Dulaglutide and Empagliflozin in patients with Diabetes Mellitus type 2 and Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease. The main question it aims to answer is: Is there a beneficial effect regarding liver steatosis in patients receiving either of these 2 medications and which is more effective? Patients will undergo shearwave elastography, magnetic resonance imaging, and ultrasound. Furthermore, calculation of the Fatty Liver Index (FLI), the Fibrosis-4 Index (FIB-4), as well as the Aspartate Aminotransferase to Platelet ratio Index (APRI) and the NAFLD Fibrosis Score (NFS) will be performed. Researchers will compare 3 groups: Group 1 will receive oral Empagliflozin, as add-on to their previous treatment regimen, for 52 weeks. Group 2 will receive subcutaneous Dulaglutide, as add-on to their previous treatment regimen, for 52 weeks. Group 3 will receive other optimal antidiabetic treatment (apart from agents of the GLP1-ras or SGLT2-is families) for 52 weeks.
This Phase 1 trial will explore the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of single and multiple ascending doses of INI-822 in healthy volunteers in Parts A and B and in participants with a history of NASH or presumed NASH in Part C.
This clinical trial will yield results about the therapeutic effect of combining pioglitazone with SGLT2i in people suffering from NAFLD associated with T2DM. Study participants will be asked to fill out a few questions on proforma that will obtain demographic information as well as information relating to their health. In addition, some blood tests will be done following standard procedures.
This is a randomized, controlled study evaluating diosmin tablets administered daily for 3 months. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of diosmin on non-diabetic patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis.
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) on endothelial, vascular and myocardial function in patients with NAFLD
Participants 13-18 years of age with extra fat stored in the liver will be randomly assigned to a protein supplement or placebo "fake supplement" for 2 months to see if the participants who get the protein supplement have less fat in the liver compared to participants who were in the placebo group.
This clinical trial aims to discover the relationship between hyperglycemia at night and early morning hours and the presence of fatty liver in patients with type 1 diabetes. The main question it aims to answer are: • if hyperglycemic patterns related to metabolic parameters in type 1 diabetes The data from the insulin pump and sensor will be processed. The patients will be divided into two groups. One group without night hyperglycemia and the other with night hyperglycemia. Investigators will perform liver elastography for these two groups. The presence or absence of hepatic steatosis will be evaluated in these groups according to the data.
