NCT ID: NCT06443723 Completed - Liver Steatoses Clinical Trials

Metabolic Dysfunction Associated Fatty Liver Disease in Long-Term Cholecystectomy Patients

Start date: November 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study was to examine the association between metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) in participants who had undergone cholecystectomy and those who had not undergone cholecystectomy. MAFLD is defined as hepatic steatosis(with ultrasonography) entity in addition to the presence of overweight or obesity, diabetes mellitus, or evidence of metabolic dysfunction. In this way, the long-term effects of cholecystectomy surgeries, which are commonly performed in the society and thought to be harmless, will be evaluated.

NCT ID: NCT06111859 Recruiting - NAFLD Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of Ultrasound in Liver Stiffness and Fat Quantification

Start date: January 2, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Liver stiffness is a marker for scarring of the liver, which occurs after damage from various liver conditions. Scarring prevents normal liver function and can lead to liver failure. Fatty liver is a common cause of liver damage and can contribute to scarring. Currently, liver biopsy serves as the 'gold standard' for assessing the degree of liver scarring and fatty infiltration, guiding treatment decisions. However, liver biopsy poses a significant risk of death and unpleasant side effects, including internal bleeding and pain. Moreover, due to the small sample of liver tissue obtained during the biopsy, the results can be misleading and may not provide an accurate overview of the liver's health. Therefore, there is an unmet need for a non-invasive method of measuring liver stiffness and fat content. Ultrasound-based methods utilize various properties of ultrasound waves to assess liver stiffness and fat levels. This study aims to recruit 100-120 patients with chronic liver disease. The investigators will assess liver stiffness and fat levels during patients' hospital visits for routine scans, biopsies, or clinic appointments. The resulting measurements of liver stiffness and fat obtained through ultrasound-based methods will be compared to patients' routine liver biopsies, routine FibroScan results (another non-invasive method routinely used in clinical care to assess patients' liver stiffness), and other non-invasive severity scores (calculated from results obtained from patients' routine blood tests, providing an overview of the extent of liver damage).

NCT ID: NCT06103175 Active, not recruiting - Liver Steatoses Clinical Trials

Observational and Prospective Study of Hepatic Steatosis and Related Risk Factors Using Ultrasound and Artificial Intelligence

ST-AI
Start date: January 15, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

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

NCT ID: NCT05884723 Not yet recruiting - NAFLD Clinical Trials

Preoperative Ketogenic Diet for Reduction of Hepatic Steatosis

Start date: May 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is becoming increasingly common in Canada and throughout the world. Fatty liver can increase the risks of perioperative complications for those who need liver surgery. A ketogenic diet is low in carbohydrates and can be very effective in reducing liver fat content. The purpose of this randomized control trial is to compare the effect of a short duration (4 week) preoperative ketogenic diet on operative and disease outcomes in patients undergoing liver surgery. One arm will be randomized to the ketogenic diet and the other will receive standard of care pre-operative dietary consultation.

NCT ID: NCT05790057 Not yet recruiting - Liver Steatoses Clinical Trials

Subclinical Cardiovascular Changes in NAFLD Patient (Predictive Value of Speckle Tracking Echocardiography )

Start date: May 1, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

the goal of this study (observational study ) is to learn about the subclinical cardiovascular changes in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver . the main questions it aims to answer are 1. the role of speckle tracking echocardiogram in detection of subclinical cardiovascular complication in NAFLD patients 2. the role of fibroscan in diagnosis of nonalcoholic fatty liver the participant will be examined by fibroscan and speckle tracking echocardiogram

NCT ID: NCT05224037 Completed - Liver Fibrosis Clinical Trials

Comparative Efficacy of Liver Fibrosis and Steatosis Assessment With Fibroscan and iLivTouch

OGIG-01-22-LF
Start date: January 21, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study is aimed to compare the results and operating characteristics of liver stiffness measurement with the use of Fibroscan (EchoSens, France) and iLivTouch (Wuxi Hisky Medical Technologies Co., China) in patients with chronic liver diseases.

NCT ID: NCT04682600 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH)

The Sonic Incytes Liver Incytes System, Evaluation of Liver Fibrosis and Steatosis Versus MRE and MRI PDFF

Start date: October 21, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The main purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of various non-invasive elastography techniques at determining liver stiffness measures in human subjects. Specifically, the investigators are comparing MRE and FibroScan to Vibroelastography (VE, Liver Incytes System). These techniques are used to measure stiffness in the liver.

NCT ID: NCT04579874 Completed - Clinical trials for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

Clinical Performance of LIVERFASt Test Compared w/ Liver Biopsy in Patients w/ NAFLD.

Start date: January 7, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective of this study is to assess the clinical performance of LIVERFAStTM In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) Tests (Fibrosis score, Activity score and Steatosis score) in NAFLD suspected patients for staging of fibrosis and for grading of inflammatory activity and steatosis, taking as reference the liver biopsy with histological classification of the elementary lesions determined according to SAF scores (Bedossa P., Hepatology 2012). The secondary objective is to assess the performance of LIVERFAStTM for the histological definition of NAFLD, including NAFL and NASH and severe NASH

NCT ID: NCT03699228 Recruiting - Obesity Clinical Trials

China biobank
Start date: December 1, 2017
Phase:
Study type: Observational

In this nationwide multi center study the investigators combine the low dose chest CT scan data with QCT technology, to measure the BMD of spine, VAT and liver fat in the health check subjects. The aim of this study is to evaluate the performance of QCT in the health check field, and further to evaluate the prevalence of osteoporosis, obesity and liver steatosis in health check population across China.
