Summary
Background Hyperuricemia has been associated with metabolic disorders. In this line recent studies observed an independent link between higher uric acid serum levels and clinical diagnosis of non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Aims We aimed to assess the potential association between uric acid serum levels and histological liver damage in a homogeneous cohort of biopsy‐proven NAFLD patients. Methods Consecutive NAFLD patients (n = 166), assessed by liver biopsy (Kleiner score), anthropometric, biochemical and metabolic features, were included. Enzymatic colorimetric test was used for serum uric acid assays (Roche Diagnostics GmbH, Mannheim, Germany). Hyperuricemia was diagnosed when uric acid serum levels were >7 mg/dL in men, and >6 mg/dL in women. Results Mean uric acid serum level was 5.75 mg/dL, and about 20% of patients had hyperuricemia, that was independently associated with younger age (OR 0.951, 95% CI 0.918–0.984, P = 0.004), lobular inflammation (OR 2.144, 95% CI 1.055–4.357, P = 0.03) and steatosis grade (OR 1.859, 95% CI 1.078–3.205, P = 0.02), by multivariate logistic regression analysis. Female gender (OR 2.656, 95% CI 1.190–5.928, P = 0.01), higher HOMA index (OR 1.219, 95% CI 1.043–1.426, P = 0.01), and hyperuricemia (OR 4.906, 95% CI 1.683–14.296, P = 0.004) were linked to NAFLD activity score (NAS) ≥ 5 by multiple logistic regression analysis. Conversely, higher HOMA index (OR 1.140, 95% CI 1.001–1.229, P = 0.04), and NAS (OR1.954, 95% CI 1.442–2.649, P < 0.001) were independently associated with significant fibrosis by logistic regression analysis. Conclusions In NAFLD patients, hyperuricemia is independently associated with the severity of liver damage, representing, in this setting of patients, together with insulin resistance, a potential new therapeutic target in future intervention trials. 相似文献2.

Summary
Background Metabolic factors have been associated with liver damage in patients with non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Aims To test a new marker of adipose dysfunction, the visceral adiposity index (VAI), in NAFLD patients to assess whether or not it is associated with host factors, and to investigate a potential correlation with histological findings. Methods One hundred and forty‐two consecutive NAFLD patients were evaluated by liver biopsy, and clinical and metabolic measurements, including insulin resistance with the homeostasis model assessment (HOMA), and VAI by using waist circumference, body mass index, triglycerides and HDL. Serum levels of TNFα, IL‐6, adiponectin and leptin were also assessed. All biopsies were scored for NAFLD activity score (NAS) and its components, and for staging (Kleiner). Results By multiple linear regression analysis, VAI was independently associated with higher HOMA (P = 0.04), and fibrosis (P = 0.04). In addition, an independent association was found between higher VAI and lower adiponectin levels (P = 0.002). Higher HOMA (OR 1.149, 95% CI 1.003–1.316, P = 0.04), higher VAI (OR 1.446, 95% CI 1.023–2.043, P = 0.03), lobular inflammation (OR 3.777, 95% CI 1.771–8.051, P = 0.001), and ballooning (OR 2.884, 95% CI 1.231–6.757, P = 0.01) were correlated with significant fibrosis (F2–F4) on multiple logistic regression analysis. In particular, the prevalence of significant fibrosis progressively increased from patients with a VAI ≤ 2.1 and HOMA ≤ 3.4 (26%) to those with a VAI > 2.1 and HOMA > 3.4 (83%). Conclusions In NAFLD patients, visceral adiposity index is an expression of both qualitative and quantitative adipose tissue dysfunction and, together with insulin resistance, is independently correlated with significant fibrosis. 相似文献4.

BACKGROUND: The relative impact of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) on health-related quality of life (HRQL) compared to other chronic liver diseases has not been fully explored. AIM: To compare the domain scores of the 29-item Chronic Liver Disease Questionnaire (CLDQ) for patients with NAFLD to those with chronic hepatitis B and chronic hepatitis C. METHODS: A HRQL questionnaire, CLDQ, was routinely administered to patients attending a liver clinic. Additional clinical and laboratory data were obtained on patients with NAFLD, chronic hepatitis B, and chronic hepatitis C from our quality of life database. Scores for each of the six CLDQ domains were compared using one-way anova and multiple regression. RESULTS: Complete data were available for 237 patients. NAFLD patients scored lowest on multiple CLDQ domains. Based on the bivariate data, NAFLD patients have the poorest HRQL, followed by chronic hepatitis C and chronic hepatitis B patients. Multivariate analysis showed that some specific domain score correlations remained significant for NAFLD diagnosis, cirrhosis, gender, and body mass index. CONCLUSION: NAFLD patients had significantly lower quality of life scores compared with patients with hepatitis B or hepatitis C on multiple CLDQ domains, suggesting that HRQL was severely impaired in patients with NAFLD. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is an important cause of chronic hepatitis and cryptogenic cirrhosis. The natural history of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is not well understood especially in Asian populations. AIM: To investigate the histological progression in Chinese patients with biopsy-proven non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. METHODS: Chinese patients who had liver biopsy at least 3 years ago and confirmed to have non-alcoholic fatty liver disease were invited for a second liver biopsy. Clinical and laboratory parameters related to their liver function and metabolic syndrome were recorded and analysed. Liver biopsies were scored for the degree of steatosis, necroinflammation and fibrosis. Correlation coefficients were calculated to assess the association between changes in histological scores and metabolic parameters. RESULTS: Seventeen patients who had been followed up for a median period of 6.1 (range: 3.8-8.0) years underwent a second liver biopsy. Nine (53%) patients had progressive disease with worsening of fibrosis score. No statistically significant correlation was found between the changes in histological scores and metabolic parameters. Seven patients developed hypertension or diabetes mellitus during the period of follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is a progressive disease in Chinese patients as in their Caucasian counterparts. Diagnosis of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease may predate development of new components of metabolic syndrome. 相似文献

Accumulating data have shown that bile acids are important cell signaling molecules, which may activate several signaling pathways to regulate biological processes. Bile acids are endogenous ligands for the farnesoid X receptor (FXR) and TGR5, a G-protein coupled receptor. Gain- and loss-of-function studies have demonstrated that both FXR and TGR5 play important roles in regulating lipid and carbohydrate metabolism and inflammatory responses. Importantly, activation of FXR or TGR5 lowers hepatic triglyceride levels and inhibits inflammation. Such properties of FXR or TGR5 have indicated that these two bile acid receptors are ideal targets for treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, one of the major health concerns worldwide. In this article, we will focus on recent advances on the role of both FXR and TGR5 in regulating hepatic triglyceride metabolism and inflammatory responses under normal and disease conditions. 相似文献

Background Several adipocytokines have been implicated in the pathogenesis non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
Aim To assess adipocytokines in NAFLD patients and controls.
Methods A total of 95 patients (26 non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), 19 simple steatosis (SS), 38 obese controls and 12 non-obese controls) were included. Fasting serum insulin, glucose, visfatin, resistin, adiponectin, tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-8 (IL-8) and IL-6 were determined. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to compare groups and determine associations.
Results Serum TNF-α and IL-8 were higher in NAFLD patients when compared with both obese and non-obese controls. Analysis involving all patients revealed a significant correlation between serum TNF-α and IL-8 ( P < 6.319e−08), and between IL-6 and IL-8 ( P < 5.271e−15). Homeostatic model assessment scores negatively correlated with adiponectin in NAFLD ( P < 0.0032). Serum visfatin was higher in all three obese groups than in non-obese controls ( P < 0.02, P < 0.002 and P < 0.008). Visfatin in NASH patients was lower than SS and obese controls. Although TNF-α was associated with NAFLD ( P < 0.02), it was interdependent on visfatin. In comparison to SS, four factors were independently associated with NASH: age, alanine aminotransferase, IL-8 and adiponectin ( P < 0.05). Multivariate analysis indicated that TNF-α was the only independent predictor of fibrosis in NASH ( P < 0.0004).
Conclusion These findings support a complex interaction between adipocytokines and the pathogenesis of NAFLD. 相似文献

非酒精性脂肪性肝病(NAFLD)是指与过量饮酒无关的临床综合征,主要病理改变包括肝细胞弥漫性脂肪变性和脂肪堆积。NAFLD动物模型表现出显著的肝脏微循环障碍,关于其形成机制,被广为接受的为"二次打击"学说。该学说认为肥胖、胰岛素抵抗等因素作为"第一次打击",导致肝脏中脂质堆积,形成单纯性脂肪肝,增加了"第二次打击"造成的肝脏损伤的易感性,这些因素包括炎症、枯否细胞功能障碍、氧化应激、线粒体障碍、脂肪因子调节紊乱等,导致非酒精性脂肪性肝炎甚至纤维化等更严重疾病的发生。 相似文献
