Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether patients with stage 1-3 NASH-related fibrosis are able to complete a single vigorous-intensity interval training (VIIT) session on an indoor rowing machine and provide blood samples before and afterwards. The results of this study will provide the foundation for future research on the role of VIIT in treating NASH.
This project investigates whether exposure to the World Trade Center Attack is a risk factor for liver injury.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Niacinamide supplementation on clinical outcome of fatty liver patients having type II DM through measurement of the following before and after Niacinamide administration: Liver enzymes, Lipid profie, HOMA-IR, Oxidative stress markers and endothelial dysfunction marker. Fibroscan with CAP will be done at baseline and at the end of the trial. Also, Evaluation of quality of life of patients before and after Niacinamide administration using Chronic Liver Disease questionnaire.
Surgical management of Morbid Obesity is increasingly frequent. A low-calorie diet is recommended with the main goal of reducing intrahepatic fat infiltration, fat tissue and making easier the surgery. Information the use pharmacological interventions during the preoperative period in this population are rare.
This study explored the cross-sectional and prospective associations between light-to-moderate alcohol consumption (LMAC) and risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in individuals with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
This study will look at physical activity and nutrition in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) or non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). The researchers will see if providing patients with NAFLD/NASH with specific physical activity and nutrition feedback as an addition to their usual clinical care helps them to lose weight and improve liver-related parameters.
This study will be conducted upon the patients with fatty liver disease. Patients who will be diagnosed as a case of fatty liver disease by ultrasound with raised liver enzyme (ALT) will be primarily selected for the study. A total number of 70 patients will be randomly selected for the study that will also be divided into two groups for the study purpose. The patients will be informed about the details of the study. After getting the detail information those who will give informed written consent will be finally included in the study. One group of patients will be treated by both life style modification and Obeticholic acid. Another group of patients by only life style modification. After 3 months of treatment the two groups will be compared of improvement of fatty liver disease and liver enzyme by improvement of fibroscan with CAP value as well as improvement of ALT value.
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is mainly considered a nutrition-related disease and life-style/diet interventions showed some promising results. But in spite of this, there are no available markers to efficiently guide interventions. the hypothesize put farth by the investigators is that NAFLD patients develop postprandial abnormalities of plasma lipids upon "western diet" challenge, more severe in steatohepatitis (NASH) than in pure steatosis (NAFL), promoting liver injury. Our study aims to evaluate the presence of toxic lipids (such as free-fatty acids, ceramides, diacylglycerols, sphingolipids) in postprandial state after ingestion of a "western diet" in NAFLD patients. Consecutive patients (group 1: NAFL patients; group 2: NASH patients) with biopsy-proven NAFLD (liver biopsy < 6 months) will be recruited during a period of 12 month. Blood samples will be drawn at fasting, 2hours, 4hours, 6hours and 8hours after ingestion of a "western diet" meal. Plasma lipid profiles using lipidomics, circulating markers of liver injury and inflammation will be analyzed. the investigators will also assess the hepatotoxicity of plasma from NAFL or NASH patients in-vitro.
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease in developed countries affecting approximately 30 % of the general adult population. It represents an important pathogenic factor in the development of type 2-diabetes and is associated with a high risk of cardiovascular disease. Previous studies of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have demonstrated an increased risk for NAFLD and the presence of both CKD and NAFLD is likely to increase the risk for cardiovascular disease. The present protocol describes a study of the prevalence and etiology of NAFLD among patients with type 2-diabetes with CKD. The study is a cross-sectional study. Fat accumulation in the liver will be determined by Magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy and the prevalence of NAFLD among patients with type 2-diabetes with normal kidney function or CKD stage 3-5 will be investigated. A continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) for four days, Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) scanning, fibro scanning of the liver, bile acid analysis, metabolomic and lipidomic analysis will also be performed.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of EYP001a (Vonafexor) with respect to safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and on markers of liver inflammation in patients with NASH
