Treatment of NAFLD with diet, physical activity and exercise

TL;DR: Clinical evidence strongly supports the role of lifestyle modification as a primary therapy for the management of NAFLD and NASH and should be accompanied by the implementation of strategies to avoid relapse and weight regain.

Hepatic inflammation and fibrosis: Functional links and key pathways

Ekihiro Seki, +1 more
- 01 Mar 2015 - 
TL;DR: Mechanisms that link inflammation with the development of liver fibrosis are reviewed, focusing on the role of inflammatory mediators in hepatic stellate cell (HSC) activation and HSC survival during fibrogenesis and fibrosis regression.

Fructose and sugar: A major mediator of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

TL;DR: Small, more definitive trials are suggested to determine if lowering sugar/HFCS intake, and/or blocking uric acid generation, may help reduce NAFLD and its downstream complications of cirrhosis and chronic liver disease.

From NAFLD to NASH to cirrhosis—new insights into disease mechanisms

TL;DR: This Review focuses on recently uncovered aspects of the genetic, biochemical, immunological and molecular events that are responsible for the development and progression of this highly prevalent and potentially serious disease.

Prevalence of hepatic steatosis in an urban population in the United States: Impact of ethnicity

TL;DR: The prevalence of hepatic steatosis was greater in men than women among whites, but not in blacks or Hispanics, and significant ethnic and sex differences in the prevalence may have a profound impact on susceptibility to Steatosis‐related liver disease.

Sources of fatty acids stored in liver and secreted via lipoproteins in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantified the biological sources of hepatic and plasma lipoprotein TAG in NAFLD patients, using stable isotopes for four days to label and track serum nonesterified fatty acids (NEFAs), dietary fatty acids, and those derived from the de novo lipogenesis (DNL) pathway, present in liver tissue and lipid TAG.

The Natural History of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: A Population-Based Cohort Study

TL;DR: Mortality among community-diagnosed NAFLD patients is higher than the general population and is associated with older age, impaired fasting glucose, and cirrhosis, although the absolute risk is low.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonalcoholic fatty liver, steatohepatitis, and the metabolic syndrome

TL;DR: The presence of multiple metabolic disorders is associated with a potentially progressive, severe liver disease and the increasing prevalence of obesity, coupled with diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and ultimately the metabolic syndrome puts a very large population at risk of forthcoming liver failure in the next decades.
Journal ArticleDOI

Risk of Cardiovascular Disease in Patients with Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

TL;DR: Growing evidence suggests that nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease beyond that conferred by established risk factors.
