Research Study on Whether Semaglutide Works in People With Non-alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH)...
Non-alcoholic SteatohepatitisSemaglutide is a medicine studied in patients with NASH. Semaglutide is a well-known medicine, which is already used by doctors to treat type 2 diabetes in many countries. Participants will either get semaglutide or a dummy medicine - which treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participants will need to inject themselves with medicine under the skin. Participants will need to do this once a week. The study will last for about 5 years. Participants will have up to 21 clinic visits and 9 phone calls with the clinical staff during the study. Some of the clinic visits may be spread over more than one day. Participants with other chronic liver diseases cannot take part in this study. Women cannot take part in the study if they are pregnant, breast-feeding or plan to become pregnant during the study period.
Lifestyle Modification in Psoriatic Patients With Fatty Liver
PsoriasisFatty LiverSeveral recent reports have shown an increased prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in those with psoriasis, which may reflect the increased occurrence of metabolic syndrome in this patient population.
Prevalence of MAFLD Among Nurses and the Role of Intermittent Fasting
Fatty Liver DiseaseThis study consists of 2 parts: Part 1: a cross-sectional study, looking at the prevalence of metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) among nurses in Hospital Canselor Tuanku Muhriz (HCTM). Part 2: a randomized controlled trial of intermittent fasting with MAFLD subjects.
Prevention of NAFLD and CVD Through Lifestyle Intervention
Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver DiseaseGallstone DiseasePrevention of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) through lifestyle intervention (MAUCO+) is a clinical trial that aims to improve sarcopenia, aerobic capacity, body composition, and lipid profile, insulin resistance, cardiovascular risk, NAFLD, and maintain a healthier lifestyle. Through the implementation of physical activity and nutritional programs.
Semaglutide vs Sitagliptin
Liver Transplant; ComplicationsDiabetes Mellitus2 moreThe effect of once daily dosing of oral Semaglutide versus once daily dosing Sitagliptin on glycemic control, body weight, and safety and tolerability will be compared in Liver Transplant Recipients with poorly-controlled Diabetes Mellitus.
Longitudinal Multi-Omic Profiles to Reveal Mechanisms of Obesity-Mediated Insulin Resistance
Diabetes MellitusType 26 moreThis 12-week controlled diet and weight intervention study seeks to define the molecular pathways that link excess body weight to the development of insulin resistance (IR). Blood, adipose and stool are sampled at three timepoints; baseline, peak weight (4 weeks) and post weight loss to monitor changes in cellular processes. Additionally, direct insulin sensitivity testing, and radiological measurement of visceral fat and intrahepatic fat content is measured at three timepoints to correlate clinical indices with cellular changes.
Liver Health and Metabolic Function in People With Obesity
Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver DiseaseThis project aims to determine the effect of significant weight loss on rates on hepatic fibrogenesis in people with obesity.
To Explore the Effectiveness of Jing-Si Herbal Tea Against Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver DiseaseThe aim of this study is to explore the effectiveness of Jing-Si Herbal Tea on improving the Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease patients
Dietary Allowance of Methyl Donor Nutrients to Minimize Risks of Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Progression...
Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver DiseaseInvestigate the methyl donors requirement of NAFLD patients to correct the malnutrition, lipid-toxicity, microbiota dysfunction, and metabolomics biomarkers.
Chronic Hepatitis B Patients With Concurrent MAFLD: Cohort Study and Exercise Intervention.
Chronic Hepatitis BNon-alcoholic Fatty Liver DiseaseIn Taiwan, HBV infection is endemic in the adult population. With the westernization of eating habit and lifestyle, metabolic syndrome and related non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases (NAFLD, newly proposed as metabolic dysfunction associated fatty liver diseases, MAFLD) has become another important health issue. It is therefore common to encounter subjects with concurrent MAFLD and HBV infection in HBV endemic countries. This project will study the clinical data of patients with concurrent MAFLD and HBV, and aim to explore the impact of exercise intervention on the hepatic fatty infiltration, alteration of gut microbiota and HBV replication status in this group of patients. The research strategies will include (1) improving fatty liver and metabolic syndrome in subjects with concurrent MAFLD and HBV; and (2) exploring the changes of HBV replication and intestinal microflora in patients with concurrent HBV and MAFLD after exercise intervention.
