Background. The prognostic importance of α-fetoprotein (AFP) level elevation in patients with chronic hepatitis C and its clinical significance in steatosis associated with HCV infection remain to be determined. The present paper assessed clinical significance of elevated AFP in patients with CHC with and without steatosis. Methods. One hundred patients with CHC were divided into 50 patients wi...
Islet allotransplantation can provide insulin independence in selected individuals with type 1 diabetes. The long-term effects of these transplants on the liver are unknown. Recently, two cases of periportal steatosis after islet transplantation have been described. In this study, we performed ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in 30 C-peptide-positive islet transplant recipients t...
BACKGROUND Hepatic steatosis has been associated with chronic hepatitis C (CHC), but its prevalence, risk factors, and clinical significance remain to be determined. AIMS The present study determined the frequency of, and risk factors for hepatic steatosis and its association with activity and progression of CHC in a large cohort of U.S. patients. METHODS This is a retrospective study that ...
AIM Steatosis is a common histological feature of chronic liver disease, especially alcoholic and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, as well as chronic hepatitis C. A recent study showed that evaluating the controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) with transient elastography was an efficient way of non-invasively determining the severity of hepatic steatosis. The objective of this study was to pr...
Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease (CLD). Omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants co-supplementation have been considered as an alternative treatment in NAFLD. This trial will evaluate camelina sativa oil (CSO) effects as a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants on cardiometabolic risk factors, metabolic endotoxemia, liver en...
Only scarce data on liver steatosis in children with chronic hepatitis B and C (CHB and CHC) are available. The objective of this study was to evaluate the prevalence, predictors, and impact of hepatic steatosis on children with CHB and CHC. A total of 78 patients aged 11.5 ± 3.4 years were included: 30 (38%) had CHB, and 48 (62%) had CHC. Steatosis was scored on a 5-point scale, as follows: ab...
OBJECTIVE The present study was performed to clarify the ability of ultrasonography (US) and computed tomography (CT) to detect steatosis and advanced fibrosis in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) patients, and to assess the influence of steatosis, fibrosis, and obesity on the radiological detection of steatosis and advanced fibrosis. METHODS One hundred and eighteen biopsy proven NASH pati...
BACKGROUND Insulin resistance is a frequent feature of chronic hepatitis C. Whether insulin resistance could be the cause or consequence of steatosis and fibrosis is unknown. The ability of HCV genotype 3 to promote steatosis by itself provides an unique opportunity to answer this question. AIMS The aim of the present study was to assess the relationships between insulin resistance, steatosis...
Hepatic steatosis is a condition frequently encountered in clinical practice, with potential progression towards chirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Ultrasonography (US) is one of the noninvasive imaging techniques used in the diagnosis of steatosis. We will review the US diagnostic criteria, the US performance in the diagnosis and grading of hepatic steatosis, the US steatosis models, but...
BACKGROUND The mechanisms underlying steatosis during hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection are complex and multifactorial. The aim of our study was to assess whether host metabolic factors influence the degree of hepatic steatosis and fibrosis in patients infected with hepatitis C virus genotype 4 by investigating the role of adiponectin, leptin and insulin resistance. METHODS Adiponectin and le...
