NCT07104786
This study was conducted on patients presenting to Mayo Hospital, Lahore from 24th August, 2023 till 23rd May, 2024. Ninety patients conforming to the inclusion criteria were selected via simple random sampling technique and divided into two groups. Group A received Obeticholic acid 10mg once a day and Group B received Vitamin E 400mg twice a day. Both treatments were given for 6 months alongwith clear written and informed instructions regarding lifestyle modification. Patients were followed at 3 and 6 months with ultrasound abdomen and serum alanine transferase levels.
NCT06623539
This is a study to evaluate the effect of pemafibrate on fatty liver in patients with hypertgemia combined with NAFLD, using fenofibrate as a control.
NCT04442620
This prospective randomized trial evaluates the role of customized dietary and physical activity intervention on the progression of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) in patients with obesity and presenting at least three of the main Metabolic Syndrome traits. The project proposes a personalized nutritional intervention based on a Mediterranean customized diet which introduces plenty of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory bioactive components, coupled with physical activity promotion to prevent and reverse NAFLD among obese patients with metabolic syndrome. This will be compared with two more dietary strategies including a Mediterranean Diet intervention with seven meals a day and the conventional dietary approach proposed by the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD).
NCT03300661
The study is an open-label intervention non pharmacological Cohort Study without control arm in patients with Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) and in healthy subjects. The intervention in patients with NAFLD is educational, providing personalized suggestions to improve diet and physical activity; the intervention in healthy subjects is educational, providing general suggestions to improve diet and physical activity.
NCT02248311
Current methods based on traditional Cardiovascular risk factors are not clinically useful for identifying Type 2 Diabetes patients at risk of developing acute Cardiovascular ischemic events (ie.myocardial infarction or stroke). In addition, Cardiovascular ischemic events in Type 2 Diabetes population have worse prognosis than in general population. In fact, there is sufficient experimental evidence indicating that diabetes exaggerates the deleterious effects of ischemic events and worsens their outcome. A prolonged sub-clinical phase exists before a Cardiovascular event occurs in Type 2 Diabetes patients. Therefore, new strategies aimed at identifying those patients with this subclinical Cardiovascular Diabetes and, consequently, more prone to develop Cardiovascular events is a challenge to be met.
NCT01966627
This is a study to investigate genetic predisposition to hepatic steatosis and the expression of gluconeogenic and lipogenic genes in livers of obese children and adolescents. Hypothesis 1: Common variants recently associated with variation in plasma TG levels identified in Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS) (such as GCKR, PNPLA3) can affect accumulation of fat and subsequent development of Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD). Gene variants act in additive or synergistic manner with progressive liver fat accumulation per additional risk allele. Hypothesis 2: With increase in hepatic fat content NASH and fibrosis will increase. Furthermore, expression of lipogenic markers (SREBP1c) will increase.
NCT01999101
The primary aim of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Px-104 in NAFLD patients and to assess the influence of Px-104 on hepatic fat.
NCT01956825
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the dual therapy of the amino acid L-CARNITINE and magnesium have an effect on reducing the liver fat content in patients with non alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
NCT01674972
The incretin effect is impaired in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), thus GLP-1 receptor agonists are used for the treatment of T2DM. Insulin resistance is a pathophysiologic hallmark of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The incretin effect in patients with NAFLD has not been studied. The aim of this study is to quantify GLP-1 secretion in response to oral glucose tolerance test (oGTT) in patients with NAFLD compared to healthy controls. The results of this study will expand the knowledge of the pathophysiology of NAFLD and serve as a rational for potential future treatment strategies.
NCT01511523
A research study of a compound containing vitamin E, silymarin and carnitine, three over the counter supplements. The investigators hope to learn if the new supplement can safely and successfully treat fatty liver disease or Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD).
