Intermittent Fasting for NAFLD in Adults
NAFLD is a growing threat to public health. Currently, there is a significant need for highly effective treatments for NAFLD. Non-obese NAFLD (BMI<30kg/m2) is an increasingly recognized condition, sometimes described as "lean NAFLD". Intermittent Fasting (IF) may be uniquely beneficial in non-obese NAFLD. The purpose of this study is to …
Fibrosis Lessens After Metabolic Surgery
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), formerly known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a major global public health concern, is commonly associated with obesity, diabetes, and dyslipidemia. MASLD is currently the most common cause of chronic liver disease affecting about 80% of people with obesity, ranging from simple fat …
Effect of the Combined Application of Cynara Scolymus, Silybum Marianum, Curcuma Longa, and Glycyrrhiza Glabra in Improving Metabolic Associated Fatty Liver Disease : a Randomized Clinical Trial
Metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is a chronic progressive liver disease caused by nutrient excess and insulin resistance (IR) in genetically susceptible individuals. With the prevalence of obesity and type 2 diabetes, the morbidity and incidence of MAFLD have been increasing globally, particularly in China. MAFLD and metabolic syndrome as …
Effect of CoQ10 on the Outcome of MAFLD Patients
So far there has been no universal treatment for MAFLD since it has a complex etiology that involves ethnic, genetic, metabolic and environmental factors. However, therapeutic life changes including: diet, weight loss, and physical activity remain the cornerstone of treatment and is recommended by both American and European associations. Inflammatory …
Effect of Henagliflozein on Hepatic Fat Content in Patients With T2DM and NAFLD
This study focuses on the effects of Henagliflozein on hepatic fat content in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Sponsored by Zhujiang Hospital of Southern Medical University, this study is a multi-center, randomized, controlled clinical trial, aiming at exploring the difference in the …
Phase 2a Study of Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of TLC-2716 in Subjects With Hypertriglyceridemia and NAFLD
This is a Phase 2a, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of 2 dose levels of TLC-2716 in subjects with hypertriglyceridemia and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease as assessed by changes in fasting triglycerides, liver steatosis by MRI, and other biomarkers.
Moderately Carbohydrate-restricted Diet to Treat NAFLD in Adolescents
This will be a 6-month randomized clinical trial with two arms: moderately carbohydrate-restricted diet and a fat-restricted control diet. This 6-month study will have 2 phases: a 12-week controlled feeding phase and a 12-week "free living" phase. During the controlled feeding phase, all food will be provided to the families …
Developing Viability Index for Machine Perfused Livers
Machine perfusion technology is nearing the point of rescuing discarded liver grafts in the hope of proving them to be or improving them to the point of being transplantable. However, there are no validated metrics to determine transplantability after machine perfusion. This study involves collecting biopsies from transplanted livers before …
A Study of Lepodisiran (LY3819469) in Participants With Normal, Mild, Moderate, or Severe Liver Function
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate how much lepodisiran gets into the blood stream and how long it takes the body to get rid of it when given as a subcutaneous (SC) injection under the skin to participants with mild, moderate, or severe liver function impairment compared …
Accuracy of Imaging Techniques in Diagnosing Steatohepatitis and Fibrosis in NAFLD Patients
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a highly prevalent condition, and when fatty liver is associated with inflammation and hepatocellular injury (steatohepatitis), it can lead to fibrosis, cirrhosis, liver failure and hepatocellular carcinoma. Liver biopsy is the gold standard for NAFLD assessment but has several drawbacks. Several drugs for NASH …
