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 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.
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is rapidly becoming the most common chronic liver disease. Considering that there are no approved pharmacological treatments, lifestyle modification is necessary and challenging to reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in patients with NAFLD. Cigarette smoking has a significant negative impact on public health, causing more than 480,000 deaths each year. Smoking has been reported as a risk factor for NAFLD and might accelerate liver disease progression. Therefore, it is recommended that patients with NAFLD quit smoking. However, smoking cessation could be complicated by weight gain. Thus, it is important to assess the impact of weight change after smoking cessation on patients with NAFLD. Proper management of post-cessation weight could maximize its health benefits. In this large-scale cohort study, the investigators aimed to assess the effects of smoking cessation and subsequent weight change on risks of incident T2DM in individuals with NAFLD.
The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of lyophilized Cornus mas L. fruit powder with/without diet therapy on biochemical parameters and anthropometric measurements in patients with metabolic associated fatty liver disease.
The web-based continuity of care intervention model to provide comprehensive nursing interventions for obese children with NAFLD, always tracking their performance status, enabling them to grasp the knowledge of healthy weight loss, develop good lifestyle habits, and reduce their weight, thus reducing the incidence of NAFLD in children.
The changes in liver function, body mass index, controlled attenuation parameters, liver stiffness and HBV-DNA at different time points in each group before and after treatment were counted to explore the clinical efficacy of Ganshuang granules combined with tenofovir in the treatment of CHB complicated with NAFLD.
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become the most prevalent liver disorder in China. The aim of this project is to evaluate the effects of compound silymarin on biomarkers of lipid metabolism and inflammation in the patients with NAFLD.
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is defined as accumulation of fat in the liver which is not related to either alcohol excess or other causes such viral infection, immune-mediated, or medication related which can lead to fibrosis and later-on, cirrhosis. Over the last years NAFLD related liver cirrhosis has become the commonest cause of chronic liver disease worldwide. Portal hypertension is the major complication caused by increased splanchnic blood flow which leads to development of oesophageal varices (OV). Almost all of the patients with portal hypertension can develop OV sometime in their life and one third of those will bleed, hence identifying the presence of OV is a an important aspect of diagnostic workup of these patients with portal hypertension. Upper digestive camera test/endoscopy is the only means to diagnose and grade OV but endoscopy is an invasive procedure and its cost effectiveness for screening is also questionable. These limitations and the ever-increasing workload on endoscopy units has led many researchers to identify some parameters that can non-invasively diagnose OV. Researchers have proposed use of platelet count/spleen diameter ratio, liver stiffness on Fibroscan among many non-invasive tools to predict OV in patients with portal hypertension with success. Recently criteria proposed in Baveno VI conference, (Baveno-IV Criteria) recommended that screening endoscopy can be avoided in patients with compensated advanced chronic liver disease (cACLD) with liver stiffness measurement (LSM) less than 20 kPa and a platelet count more than than 150,000/μL with an expanded Baveno-IV criteria suggesting platelet count >110 × 109 cells/L and LSM <25 kPa can spare even more endoscopies with a risk of missing varices needing treatment (VNT) being minimal.
