CONTEXT Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a chronic liver disease, with 5-10% of liver having extra fat. Increase in its prevalence in all age groups is linked with obesity and Type II diabetes. The treatment of NAFLD remains controversial. A growing body of evidence suggests a relation between overgrowth of gut microbiota with NAFLD and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). The obje...

Background Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the most common diseases, influenced by various risk factors associated with metabolic disorders. Currently there no specific effective treatment for NAFLD. Probiotics have been extensively researched their health benefit Probiotic Supplementation

Background and Aims: Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) represents an increasing cause of liver disease worldwide. Cardiovascular (CVD) is the leading morbidity mortality in these patients. Although NAFLD pathophysiology not fully understood alterations fat metabolism seem to play a role. Autoantibodies against apolipoprotein A-1 (anti-apoA-1 IgG) are novel cardiovascular risk factor whi...

AIM The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of an aerobic exercise on serum level of liver enzymes and liver echogenicity in patients with non alcoholic fatty liver disease. BACKGROUND Non alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has different prevalence in various parts of the world. Obesity and low physical activity are main risk factors for the development of NAFLD. PATIENTS AND ME...

In article number 2007425, Junmin Lee, Ali Khademhosseini, and co-workers present a breakthrough for modeling of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) based on bioengineered multicellular microtissues liver-on-a-chip system. The consisting four major cell types (primary human hepatocytes, stellate cells, Kupffer endothelial cells) recapitulate the pathogenesis hepatic fibrosis driven by NAF...

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a heterogeneous disease that may range from simple steatosis (non-alcoholic fatty liver, NAFL) to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) which can progress to advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis and is currently one of the most common chronic liver diseases in Korea and worldwide. Furthermore, in parallel with the increasing prevalence of obesity, type 2 d...

conclusions it seems that surrogate liver function tests and adipocytokine levels were correlated with the histologic findings of the liver. objectives the aim of the study was to evaluate the correlation between serum adipocytokines and the histologic findings of the liver in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld). patients and methods this case-control study was performed on ...
