Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease Clinical Trial
Official title:
NASH-FITTER: Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis Fitness Intervention Treatment Targeting Endothelial Dysfunction Reversal
This research is being done to find out if aerobic exercise is beneficial in reversing
scarring. Physical activity has been shown to increase fitness in healthy individuals as well
as in those with NASH. This research will allow for better understanding the effects of
physical activity on fitness and endothelial function in patients with NASH with the goal of
reversing scarring.
Approximately 12 people will take part in this research study at Penn State (PSU) Milton S.
Hershey Medical Center (HMC), Penn State Physical Medicine & Research (PM&R) Laboratories
housed at the Hershey Center for Applied Research (HCAR) and the Penn State University
Fitness Center (UFC).
Preliminary studies show universally low cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) in Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) patients was dependent on body composition. The proposed work is based on the hypothesis that gains in cardiorespiratory fitness and improved endothelial function achieved through exercise can arrest or reverse progression of hepatic fibrosis, lessen cardiovascular disease risk (CVD), and improve all-cause mortality in patients with NASH. The aims of this research proposal are designed to characterize and better understand the effects of physical activity (PA) on CRF and endothelial function in patients with NASH. The goal is to arrest progression of fibrosis and reduce CVD risk. This proposal includes a cross-sectional study and a small pilot clinical trial in a high-risk subgroup of NASH most likely to benefit from PA. ;
