Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common chronic liver disease globally. While weight loss through lifestyle modification is the standard treatment, most patients regain weight limiting ultimate improvement in liver disease. On the other end of the spectrum, bariatric surgery has shown promise in the treatment of …
How to construct a novel, non-invasive, accurate, and convenient method to achieve prediction of hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) is an important general problem in the management of portal hypertension in cirrhosis or advanced chronic liver disease. We plan to investigate the ability of three demensional-magnetic resonance elastography (3D-MRE) to …
Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) refers to a spectrum of disease characterized by the presence of more than 5% of steatosis in hepatocytes of individuals who consume little or no alcohol. It ranges from simple steatosis without evidence of inflammation, to the association of steatosis and inflammation with cellular necrosis, …
The prevalence of Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and its severe form, Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), is high and they are increasingly becoming major causes of cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and the need for liver transplantation. Due to the lack of noticeable symptoms during the early stages, the detection …
This is a study to measure liver recovery in patients with recent alcohol-associated liver injury by assessing liver function and physiology using HepQuant DuO. The HepQuant DuO Test is a blood-based test that involves a drink of a natural compound, cholate, and 2 blood samples at 20 and 60 minutes. …
Remote healthcare monitoring for cirrhosis has shown promise in overcoming barriers to accessing specialty care, improving healthcare quality, and reducing mortality. The LiverWatch study is investigating whether a remote nutrition, physical activity, and education intervention can improve health outcomes in those with cirrhosis. In this clinical trial, individuals will be …
This study aims to evaluate the prevalence of thyroid dysfunction and its association with metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial focused on the treatment of severe alcohol-associated hepatitis (sAH) and alcohol use disorder (AUD). The primary purpose of the study is to determine whether subjects receiving sAH therapy in addition to AUD treatments will have better alcohol and liver-related outcomes at 6 …
The aim of this randomized interventional trial is to understand the effects of peanut consumption on patients with metabolic associated fatty liver. The main goal is to investigate if patients who consume peanuts have improved liver marker tests as well as metabolic profile. We will also investigate how peanuts alter …
Muscle changes including myosteatosis are reported as highly prevalent in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Recent studies highlighted a link between muscle fat content and liver disease severity. Conversely, MASLD histological remission though diet or metabolic surgeries is also linked to a decrease in muscle fat content. Therefore, skeletal …
