nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld) is increasing in pediatric age group parallel to the growing prevalence of obesity and overweight all around the world. so changing in life style and   interventions on obesogenic environment is cornerstone of nafld therapy in obese children. some experts recommend that children and adolescents be encouraged to follow a low-fat, low-glycemic-index diet t...

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...

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and alcoholic liver disease (ALD) cause significant morbidity and mortality in affected patients and are common causes of liver failure worldwide [1]. NAFLD and ALD are histologically indistinguishable by conventional methods but their disease courses are quite divergent. In particular, ALD patients with steatohepatitis have a more rapid progression to ...

background: non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld) was one of prevalent problems in general population. it was the most common cause of abnormal liver function tests and may lead to steatohepatitis and cirrhosis. the role of many factors has been known in nafld. in this study, we investigated the correlation of serum magnesium level and nafld after minimizing the role of major confounding fa...

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...

The role of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) as a potential independent cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factor has recently gained considerable attention because CVD is the common cause of death in NAFLD patients. We aimed to estimate the effects of vitamin D supplementation alone or in combination with calcium on atherogenic indices, liver function tests and grade of disease in pati...

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
