conclusions elevation of liver enzymes appears in 29 % obese children in a tertiary care centre. absolute alanine aminotransferase levels are significantly higher in obese than in overweight children. even obese children with normal liver enzymes show signs of fatty liver disease as demonstrated by liver enzymes at the upper limit of normal. results elevated alanine aminotransferase was observe...

aim : the aim of this study was to review cases of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld) cases and to determine the prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease as a cause of elevated alanine aminotransferase (alt) in healthy blood donors in the permian area and also assess risk factors of nafld such as body mass index (bmi) and correlation with metabolic syndrome in these subjects. back...

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...

background: non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld) is characterized by fatty change of liver without inflammation. the aim of this study was to evaluate presence of clinical and metabolic components in non-diabetic patients with nafld and to assess the relationship between insulin resistance and these factors. materials andmethods: in this study, a group of 50 sonographically confirmed patie...

background there are several studies in the literature investigating factors which can induce non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld) in different populations. however, the existing literature lacks powerful studies addressing the factors which may predict the severity of nafld. objectives in the current study, we aimed to evaluate factors independently associated with liver echogenicity in a...

background non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld) is a growing diagnosed condition which causes a wide spectrum of liver disorders. there is a lot of evidence introducing nafld as a risk factor for coronary artery disease (cad) but there is substantial challenge on the independency of this correlation. conclusions according to the results of the current study, the prevalence of nafld among t...

objective: nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld) is the most common form of liver disease in the world and it is one of the liver transplantation causes. the present study aimed to investigate the effect of purslane seeds on anthropometric parameters, fasting blood glucose (fbs), and liver enzymes in patients with nonalcoholic fatty livers. materials and methods: in this clinical trial, 54 p...
