Hepatic steatosis assessment is of paramount importance for living liver donor selection because significant hepatic steatosis can affect the postoperative outcome of recipients and the safety of the donor. The validity of various noninvasive imaging methods to assess hepatic steatosis remains controversial. The purpose of our study is to investigate the association between noninvasive imaging ...
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 ultrasonography (US), we aimed to demonstrate the degree of liver steatosis and abdominal fat distrib...
BACKGROUND Hepatic steatosis is commonly observed in patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC). Many studies indicate a relationship between steatosis and fibrosis progression. The aim of this study was to analyze the prevalence of hepatic steatosis and related factors in Iranian CHC patients. METHODS One hundred and fifteen consecutive patients with CHC were enrolled which were treatment- naïv...
BACKGROUND Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is associated with a risk of coronary artery disease (e.g., diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, metabolic syndrome). We evaluated whether nonalcoholic hepatic steatosis is associated with high-risk plaques as assessed by multidetector computed tomography (CT). METHODS This retrospective study involved 414 participants suspected of having coronary arter...
OBJECTIVE To determine the accuracy of ultrasound in the diagnosis and grading of steatosis and fibrosis in Hepatitis C (HCV) patients not responding to ribavarin-interferon therapy. STUDY DESIGN A cross-sectional, analytical study. PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDY Radiology Department, Civil Hospital, Karachi, from March 2008 to August 2010. METHODOLOGY Patients with positive HCV RNA despite ...
PURPOSE To assess the accuracy of noninvasive 3.0 T (1)H-magnetic resonance spectroscopy ((1)H-MRS) in an experimental steatosis model for the discrimination of clinically relevant macrovesicular steatosis degrees and to evaluate three different (1)H-MR spectrum-based fat quantification methods. MATERIALS AND METHODS Steatosis was induced in rats by a methionine/choline-deficient diet for 0-5...
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection has been associated with hepatic steatosis. However, the role of hepatic steatosis in the pathogenesis of HCV infection remains controversial. In our study, 425 consecutive HCV-viremic patients with biopsy-proven chronic hepatitis C (male, 264; mean age, 49.0 years) were enrolled. Scoring of hepatic steatosis was based on the method described by Kleiner and on ...
Conflicting data exist regarding the relationship between hepatitis C virus genotype 1 and hepatic steatosis as well as the latter's role in the progression of fibrosis and treatment response. We assessed factors associated with hepatic steatosis in genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C and the impact of hepatic fat on fibrosis development and interferon responsiveness. Two hundred ninety-one non-diab...
UNLABELLED Liver steatosis is a common finding in patients infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV). Host and viral factors have been associated with steatosis, but their relative contributions have not been clearly addressed. It has been suggested that steatosis plays a role in the progression of liver fibrosis. AIMS To assess: a) factors associated with steatosis in patients infected with hepa...
BACKGROUND Hepatic steatosis has been described in 31-72% of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) liver biopsies. Steatosis has been related to disease progression and suggested as a predictor of treatment response in chronic HCV. This study aims to evaluate the presence and degree of steatosis in liver histology of patients with chronic HCV prior to combination therapy with interferon (INF) and rib...
