Filter by:In China, with the improvement of living standards, there is a significant increase in the rate of prevalence of type 2 diabetes and hyperlipidemia, associated with Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease（NAFLD） which has gradually become a major public health problem in our country. The latest study found that intestinal microflora imbalance is closely correlated with NAFLD. In this subject, the investigators aim to explore whether intestinal microbiota transplantation(IMT) could reverse the change of intestinal microflora imbalance and has direct effects of NAFLD.
To investigate the synergic therapeutic effect of thiazolidinediones and SGLT2 inhibitor on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, the effect of empagliflozin 10mg, pioglitazone 15mg monotherapy and combination therapy n patients with type 2 diabetes and fatty liver will be compared and analyzed. This study included a total of 60 patients (20 per subgroup) for randomized controlled trials with prospective, open label, randomized, single-institution clinical trials. The drug will be maintained for a total of six months. The primary endpoint is the difference of liver fat change measured by MRI-PDFF in co-localized regions of interest within nine liver segments between three groups.
It is an observational study of non alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients with a calculated sample size of 90. Liver biopsy proved NAFLD patients will be recruited in this study for 2 years follow-up. Patients will be assessed at baseline, at every six months for blood count, liver function test, fasting blood-glucose, fasting insulin, ferritin, liver ultrasonography, and liver stiffness.
As the prevalence of obesity is reaching epidemic proportions, the prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), including non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), increases concomitantly and becomes a major global health hazard. Successful pharmacological interventions to treat or prevent NASH are not available and so far only weight loss has clear benefits, but sustained weight-loss is difficult to achieve on the longer-term. We recently demonstrated in mice that plant sterol and stanol ester consumption inhibited the development of liver inflammation, which needs to be validated in humans in a translational approach. In the current proposed pilot study, the effect of consuming plant sterol or plant stanol esters on biopsy proven liver inflammation will be investigated in NAFLD patients. The objective is to assess the effect of consuming plant sterol or plant stanol esters (3 grams/day) for 12 months on biopsy proven liver inflammation in NAFLD patients. This study is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double blinded pilot study with a run-period of 2 weeks, an intervention period of 12 months and a wash-out period of 1 month. The study population consists of 15 patients with biopsy-proven liver inflammation, aged 18-75 years. All subjects will start a run-in period of two weeks during which they consume daily 20 grams of control margarine after which they will be randomly allocated to consume 20 grams control margarine or plant sterol or plant stanol enriched margarine on a daily basis for a period of 12 months. The primary outcome parameter in this study is biopsy proven liver inflammation.
This study evaluates how 4-week supplementation with hydrogen-rich water affects liver fat accumulation, blood lipid profiles and body composition in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
Blind, placebo-controlled study testing the hypothesis that oral dietary supplement rich with fucoxanthin will decrease biochemical clinical markers related to liver health.
This is a multicenter, phase 2A, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Saroglitazar Magnesium in women with well characterized PCOS.
Smectite is a natural silicate clay belonging to the dioctahedral smectite class and has the ability directly to absorb bacterial toxins, bacteria, viruses and bile salts. Diosmectite also has a protective effect against intestinal inflammation hence suppressing production of cytokines such as IL-8 and TNFα. Investigators suggested that all these pharmacological properties may be beneficial for the treatment of NAFLD. Based on preclinical data, in rats with MSG induced obesity supplementation of alive probiotics with smectite gel (Symbiter-Forte) due to his absorbent activity lead to significant reduction of chronic systemic inflammatory markers, lower total NAS (NAFLD activity score) score, with more pronounced reduction of lobular inflammation as compared to administration of probiotic alone. In respect to preclinical data, in this double-blind single center randomized clinical trial (RCT) the efficacy of alive probiotics supplementation with smectite gel (Symbiter-Forte) vs. placebo in type-2 diabetes patient with NAFLD detected on ultrasonography will be studied
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a highly prevalent disorder which is directly linked to lifestyle patterns and is associated with poor quality of life, increased fatigue and psychological distress. The aim of the current study is to evaluate quality of life, fatigue and psychological functioning in NAFLD patients and assess the impact of systematic counseling on patients' psychosocial functioning.
This is a companion study assessing the ¹³C-Methacetin Breath Test (MBT) in subjects participating in the Bristol Myers-Squibb (BMS) NCT03486899 and NCT03486912 referenced studies using study drug BMS-986036.
