Filter by:In non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), it is established that calorie restriction is the most essential dietary modification. The time-restricted diet is successful lowering total calorie consumption and insulin resistance, and is anticipated to be beneficial for patients with NAFLD. Therefore, this study aims to conduct a prospective study to determine the effect of time-restricted diet via a mobile application on the amount of intrahepatic fat and 10-year cardiovascular disease risk in patients with NAFLD.
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a metabolic disorder with high prevalence in patients suffering from chronic liver diseases [1]. NAFLD is characterized by the accumulation of > 5% of fat deposits in hepatocytes (hepatic steatosis) with no known other reasons for steatosis as excessive alcohol intake.The global prevalence of NAFLD differs depending on the population reaching 13% in Africa, 32% in the Middle East, and 30 % in the United States
This study aims at evaluating and comparing the protective outcomes of using Febuxostat versus Vitamin E in Hyperuricemia non-alcoholic steatohepatitis patients without cirrhosis. The intervention is 6-months duration and the study will assess the efficacy of either drug as fibrosis improvement (≥ 1 stage) with no worsening of NASH or NASH resolution with no worsening of fibrosis with the study considered successful if either 1ry end point is met. Also, assessment of biochemical markers related to steatosis, inflammation, oxidative stress, insulin resistance and liver fibrosis will be done.
This study aims at evaluating and comparing the protective outcomes of using Obeticholic acid versus Vitamin E in NASH patients without cirrhosis. The intervention is 6-months duration and the study will assess the efficacy of either drug as fibrosis improvement (≥ 1 stage) with no worsening of NASH or NASH resolution with no worsening of fibrosis with the study considered successful if either 1ry end point is met. . Also, assessment of biochemical markers related to steatosis, inflammation, oxidative stress, insulin resistance and liver fibrosis will be done.
The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and cognitive impairment and evaluate the effect of metabolic surgery or lifestyle intervention on cognition.
The purpose of this study was to use machine learning to explore a more precise classification of NAFLD subgroups towards informing individualized therapy.
This is a two-part study. In Part A, eligible participants will undergo a baseline diagnostic liver biopsy to determine non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) Activity Score (NAS) and fibrosis stage, but will not receive study intervention. In Part B, participants with histologically confirmed NAFLD or non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) will receive study intervention.
Given the current increase in the incidence of dyslipidemia and obesity in the general population, there is a strong interest in identifying dietary factors capable of preventing the onset of metabolic diseases or at least capable of reducing metabolic risk. Several experimental evidences have shown that improving the carbohydrate and lipid profile in subjects at risk can reduce mortality linked to cardiovascular, neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. The diet is, therefore, an effective prevention tool in combating diseases related to metabolism, such as MAFLD (Metabolic Associated Fatty Liver Disease). In particular, fruit with its high content of polyphenols has been shown to exert a high anti-inflammatory, antithrombotic and antiproliferative action. Polyphenols extracted from oranges of the "Tacle" variety have demonstrated in vitro an inhibitory action of cholesterol synthesis. In addition, the consumption of orange juice has been shown to improve the serum lipid profile of obese subjects, as well as "hesperedine", a flavonoid mainly present in oranges is able to reduce the proliferative activity of MCF-7 (human breast cancer cell line with estrogen, progesterone and glucocorticoid receptors) cells.
Early detection of renal impairment in patients with Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and its correlation with serum Adiponectin level.
The investigators seek to analyze the samples provided by patients with obesity-associated fatty liver disease at the multi-omics level and to integrate the results with clinical information, genotypic variants, and factors influencing inter-organ crosstalk. The main aim is to improve the interpretation of fatty liver disease associated with obesity and diabetes by developing predictive models built with algorithms from artificial intelligence. The challenge is to decipher the flow of information by exploring contributing factors, proximate causes of regulatory defects, and maladaptive responses that may promote therapeutic approaches.
