Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is an increasingly recognized medical condition that may progress to hepatic cirrhosis with liver failure. The pathologic picture resembles that of alcohol-induced liver injury, but it occurs in patients who do not abuse alcohol. NAFLD is more common among
Obesity is a major risk factor for the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and is associated with a cluster of metabolic factors that lead to poor cardiovascular outcomes. In non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), liver fat (triglyceride) accumulation closely mirrors adipose tissue
OBJECTIVE
Although obesity is a major risk factor for nonalcoholic fatty liver (NAFL), not all individuals with obesity develop the condition, suggesting that other factors such as diet may also contribute to NAFL development. We evaluated associations between fructose and total sugar intake and
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is an independent predictor of CVD in otherwise healthy individuals. Low n-3 PUFA intake has been associated with the presence of NAFLD; however, the relationship between a biomarker of n-3 status - the Omega-3 Index - and liver fat is yet to be elucidated.
BACKGROUND
The objective of the present study was to investigate vitamin A nutritional status in individuals with class III obesity through a biochemical indicator (retinol and beta-carotene serum levels), correlating these findings with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) presence and its
OBJECTIVE
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is associated with insulin resistance and characterised by different degrees of hepatic lesion. Its pathogenesis and correlation with apoptosis and insulin resistance in insulin target tissues remains incompletely understood. We investigated how
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a chronic liver disease of a broad histological spectrum, characterized by the accumulation of triglycerides in more than 5% of hepatocytes in the absence of consuming alcohol in quantities harmful to the liver. The aim of our study was to determine the
The incidence of obesity and diabetes is increasing rapidly. Optimal management is still elusive. Obesity associated with type 2 diabetes is known to cause adipose tissue inflammation, increase oxidative stress, and cause white fat hyperplasia and mitochondrial dysfunction. In this To investigate the relationship between nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and cardiovascular risk factors and increased risk of atherosclerosis in obese children. The study included 80 consecutive obese children who were stratified into group 1 [ultrasonographically diagnosed with NAFLD (n = 50)] and
Objective: This cohort study aimed to explore the relationship between the Notch signaling pathway and the degree of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Moreover, this study intended to investigate whether this pathway is related to
OBJECTIVE
Identification of specific origin of lipid accumulation in the liver of patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most important step in preventing this condition. Because liver steatosis, in the obese patients without any systemic disease, can be graded easily by
This study investigated an association between obesity and impaired renal functions in elderly patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and evaluated the risk factors for chronic kidney disease (CKD) in these patients.A cross-sectional study The features on computed tomographic (CT) scans of nonalcoholic fatty liver were investigated in 24 patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver related to overweight. CT examinations were performed before and after 3 months of a low-calorie diet. The reversibility of fatty infiltration during diet
It is generally agreed that nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a component of metabolic syndrome and is frequently associated with obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, atherogenic dyslipidemia, and other components of the syndrome. However, there is no doubt that not all overweight people
Aim: To clarify the effects of obesity reduction on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in obese children.
Methods: Twenty-six obese pediatric NAFLD patients (median age,
