Background & Objectives: This study was conducted with objective of studying the lipid abnormalities in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease diagnosed on the basis of ultrasound.Materials & Methods: Total 100 patients consisting of 67 males and 37 females diagnosed as Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease on the basis of ultrasound were included in the study. Laboratory values of different lipid parameters were compared in different grades of these patients.Results: Out of total 100 cases, mild nonalcoholic fatty liver disease was found in 83 %, moderate in 17 % and severe in none of the participants. Age of the participants ranged from 26 to 79 years with mean being 45 ± 11.99 years. Presence of dyslipidemia was found in 94 % of the cases. Triglycerides, total cholesterol and low density lipoprotein levels were raised in 59, 53, 72% of the cases respectively and High density lipoprotein level was decreased in 57% of participants. There was significant positive correlation of presence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease with increasing levels of serum total cholesterol (P value <0.001), low density lipoprotein (P value <0.001) and triglyceride (P value <0.001) and significantly decreasing high density lipoprotein (P value <0.001). Whereas increasing grades of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease weren’t significantly associated with increasing level of lipid abnormalities.Conclusion: This study showed the high prevalence of dyslipidemia in non-alcoholic fatty liver patients. Early detection with simple non-invasive ultrasonography is very useful to detect dyslipidemic patients.

Abstract Background: Fatty liver disease is a common and major chronic liver disease. It has been implicated that patients have disorders of lipid metabolism and involved in the pathogenesis of fatty liver. Lipid profile plays a very important role in diagnosis of liver diseases hence it was designed to observe relationship between lipid profile and fatty liver disease (FLD) based on ultrasonography (USG).Method and methodology: This Cross-sectional and analytical study was undertaken in the Department of Internal Medicine with collaboration of Department of Radiology and Department of Biochemistry, Universal College of Medical Sciences-Teaching Hospital (UCMS-TH), Bhairahawa, Nepal from March 2019 to February 2020 in total 100 patients diagnosed with FLD by USG.Result: In 100 cases, the male to female ratio was 1.8:1. 56% of the total cases presented with alcoholic fatty liver disease (AFLD) while remaining 44% with non alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The spectrum of lipid abnormality was observed with increased total cholesterol (TC), Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL), increased triglycerides (TG) and Very Low Density Lipoprotein (VLDL) in AFLD cases as compared to NAFLD cases. However, it has been observed that TG/HDL and Non-HDL/HDL were higher in NAFLD as compared to AFLD. There was statistical significant difference in HDL (p-value: 0.019) between alcoholic fatty liver disease grade 1 (AFLG1) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease grade 1 (NAFLG1). Moreover, it was observed statistical significant difference in HDL between AFLG2 and NAFLG2 (p-value: 0.012).Conclusion:Elevated level of TG and decreased HDL has been implicated in the precipitation of the occlusive vascular disease. These parameters in conjunction with Non-HDL/HDL and TG/HDL can be useful in early screening and monitoring of dyslipidemia in the fatty liver patients to prevent cardiovascular diseases.

Objective. To evaluate the effectiveness of comprehensive treatment of patients with postoperative hypothyroidism (PH) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Materials and methods. 40 patients (20 men and 20 women) aged 42±6 years with PH and NAFLD were examined. Patients were divided into two groups: main (n=20) and control (n=20). Prior to the study and after 1 month, the level of total cholesterol (TH), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) was determined. Patients in both groups were prescribed levothyroxine sodium (125-175 μg a day). Additionally, the 1st group of patients received arginine hydrochloride 42 mg/ml according to the scheme 200 ml a day per 15 days, the next 15 days L-arginine aspartate 200 mg/ml 5 ml a day. And the control group received only levothyroxine sodium. Results. The level of TH in 1st group decreased from 7.1±0.8 to 6.7±0.4 mmol/l, and in 2nd – from 7.2±0.7 to 6.97±0.35 mmol/l. In the 1st group TG decreased from 3.9±0.4 to 3.5±0.3 mmol/l, and in the 2nd – from 3.8±0.5 to 3.7±0.1 mmol/l. LDL in 1st group decreased from 5.9±1.4 to 5.5±1.2 mmol/l, in the 2nd – from 5.8±1.3 to 5.7±1.4 mmol/l. The level of ALT in 1st group decreased from 47.5±1.82 to 40.1±1.73 IU/l, the level of AST – from 41.3±1.52 to 39.8±1.33 IU/l, in no changes in AST and ALT levels were observed in the control group. Conclusions. Comprehensive treatment of patients with PH and NAFLD contributed to the improvement of liver transaminases (reduction of AST, ALT), as well as the normalization of the lipid profile (reduction of TC, TG and LDL).

Dyslipidemia is currently accepted to be one of the major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and atherosclerosis. There is no question that the liver plays an important role in the development of atherogenic dyslipidemia and it is simultaneously a target organ, which results in the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The latter limits the feasibilities of adequate hypolipidemic therapy, thus increasing the cardiovascular risks. There is a need to use hepatoprotectors when atherogenic dyslipidemia in a patient with documented NAFLD is treated with statins and fibrates. The choice of hepatoprotectors depends on the stage of NAFLD. It is expedient to take statins in combination with ursodeoxycholic acid preparations in NAFLD at the stage of steatosis. A combination of statins and a cholesterol absorption inhibitor is more effective in achieving low-density lipoprotein cholesterol goals in patients with hypercholesterolemia. Intestinal microflora-normalizing agents (enteric antiseptics, pre- and probiotics) should be included into a complex of hypolipidemic therapy in patients with NAFLD. Key words: atherogenic dyslipidemia, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, hypolipidemic therapy.

Many studies have associated altered intestinal bacterial communities and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, but the putative effects are inconclusive. The purpose of this network meta-analysis (NMA) was to evaluate the effects of probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease through randomised intervention trials. Literature searches were performed until March 2020. For each outcome, a random NMA was performed, the surface under the cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA) was determined. A total of 22 randomised trials comparing prebiotic, probiotic, and synbiotic treatments included 1301 participants. Considering all seven results (aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, body mass index, weight, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol) together, the highest SUCRA values are probiotics (94%), synbiotics (61%) and prebiotics (56%), respectively. NMA results provide evidence that probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics can alleviate non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. However, due to the lack of high-quality randomised trials, this research also has some limitations.
