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 …
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 …
A Trial to Learn if ALN-PNP is Safe and Well Tolerated in Healthy Adults and Adult Participants With Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD)
This study is researching an experimental drug called ALN-PNP (called "study drug"). This is a first in human study. The study drug is not approved by any public health agency such as the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for any kind of treatment. This study consists of 3 …
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 …
Preoperative Ketogenic Diet for Reduction of Hepatic Steatosis
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 …
Effectiveness of Bariatric Surgery for NAFLD/NASH
This is a prospective, multicenter cohort study, which subjects were obese patients requiring bariatric surgery. This study aims to explore the the effectiveness of bariatric surgery for NAFLD/NASH with fribrosis, to explore the differences in the effectiveness among sleeve gastrostomy \[SG\], Roux-en-Y gastric bypass \[RYGB\], or one anastomosis gastric bypass …
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.
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 …
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 …
