Filter by:To determine the prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
The goal of this study is to assess if motivational counselling works to reduce the weight in participants with Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD).
This is a Phase 2a study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of oral (PO) daily (QD) doses of ALG-055009 (soft gelatin [softgel] capsule) for 12 weeks.
The goal of this double-blinded, randomized trial is to investigate the effects of acute binge drink on liver function, liver fat content and lipid metabolism in healthy young subjects. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. if acute binge drink could alleviate liver injury and hepatic steatosis.
The study is designed as a 12-week randomized controlled dietary intervention in individuals who had been diagnosed with NAFLD in the last 6 months and whose body mass index is above 25 at the time of participation in the pre-screening. The study sample is determined as 150 subjects and randomization will be done by stratification according to PNPLA3 genotype. At baseline, hepatic steatosis and fibrosis will be measured with Fibroscan, body composition will be analyzed, and transaminases and sugar and lipid metabolism indicators will be examined. The study will be conducted in parallel groups, with each group receiving equal amounts and intensity of Mediterranean diet or low-fat diet therapy. At the end of the 12-week intervention, baseline measurements will be repeated and the efficacy of the Mediterranean Diet and Low-fat diet therapies will be compared, as well as the effect of PNPLA3 mutation on intrahepatic response will be analyzed.
Fatty liver is the most frequent chronic liver disease worldwide and ultrasonography is widely employed for diagnosis. The accuracy of this technique, however, is strongly operator-dependent. Few information is available, so far, on the possible use of algorithms based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) to ameliorate the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography in diagnosing fatty liver. This study showed that the use of AI is able to improve the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography in the diagnosis of fatty liver
This is a case-control study that aims to build a predictive model for MAFLD based on machine learning.
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.
In HIV-infected people with metabolic fatty liver disease and liver fibrosis of any degree, as measured by non-invasive testing, antiretroviral treatment that includes rilpivinire for 18 months results in a slowing of progression and/or reduction of fatty metabolic liver disease, attenuating inflammation and liver fibrosis.
The goal of this double-blinded, randomized, crossover trial is to investigate the effects of NMN supplementation on liver function, liver fat content and lipid metabolism in healthy young subjects with acute binge drink. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. if NMN administration could accelerate alcohol metabolism and alleviate hangover symptom; 2. if NMN administration could alleviate alcohol-induced liver injury and hepatic steatosis.
