Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) — Symptoms and Treatment
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, one form of the non-alcoholic fatty liver disease spectrum, has been associated with obesity and lipid dysregulation. The patient usually presents with abnormal lipid and liver profiles. The most evidence based treatment for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis involves around weight loss, glycemic control and avoiding liver insulting drugs. Our current understanding of the pathogenesis of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis is still limited but novel and more specific treatments are being developed.

Background: Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a progressive stage of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), is characterized by steatosis with inflammation. Investigations have suggested that oxidative stress may play an important role in the progress of NAFLD to NASH. To provide further insights into beneficial effects of antioxidants in NASH prevention, we employed two manganese-supero...

Objective(s): Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is defined by steatosis and inflammation in the hepatocytes, which can progress to cirrhosis and possibly hepatocellular carcinoma. However, current treatments are not entirely effective. Allantoin is one of the principal compounds in many plants and an imidazoline I receptor agonist as well. Allantoin has positive eff...

The prevalence of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is growing at an alarming rate as the prevalence of obesity and cardiovascular risk factors are increasing rapidly [1]. Although there is a relatively long time for management of obesity and reversing its effects on the health, we have a short time for management of NAFLD and prevention of the disease progression to the Nonalcoholic Ste...
