The NAFLD fibrosis score: a noninvasive system that identifies liver fibrosis in patients with NAFLD.
UNLABELLED Patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and advanced liver fibrosis are at the highest risk for progressing to end-stage liver disease. We constructed and validated a scoring system consisting of routinely measured and readily available clinical and laboratory data to separate NAFLD patients with and without advanced fibrosis. A total of 733 patients with NAFLD confirm...
متن کاملNAFLD fibrosis score: a prognostic predictor for mortality and liver complications among NAFLD patients.
AIM To study whether the severity of liver fibrosis estimated by the nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) fibrosis score can predict all-cause mortality, cardiac complications, and/or liver complications of patients with NAFLD over long-term follow-up. METHODS A cohort of well-characterized patients with NAFLD diagnosed during the period of 1980-2000 was identified through the Rochester E...
متن کاملElevated red cell distribution width is associated with advanced fibrosis in NAFLD
BACKGROUND/AIMS The red-blood-cell distribution width (RDW) is a newly recognized risk marker in patients with cardiovascular disease, but its role in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has not been well defined. The aim of the present study was to determine the association between RDW values and the level of fibrosis in NAFLD according to BARD and FIB-4 scores. METHODS This study inclu...
متن کاملThe BARD score and the NAFLD fibrosis score in the assessment of advanced liver fibrosis in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
BACKGROUND Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) refers to a very wide clinical spectrum. Advanced fibrosis that accompanies disease leads to the development of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Thus, identification of patients with advanced fibrosis is essential. The aim of the present study was to compare the usefulness of NAFLD fibrosis and BARD scores in predicting fibrosis in NAF...
متن کاملmetabolic syndrome is associated with higher wall motion score and larger infarct size after acute myocardial infarction
conclusions we showed that patients with metabolic syndrome have larger infarct size compared to control subjects. background infarct size is an important surrogate end point for early and late mortality after acute myocardial infarction. despite the high prevalence of metabolic syndrome in patients with atherosclerotic diseases, adequate data are still lacking regarding the extent of myocardia...
