BackgroundVariants of adiponutrin (PNPLA3) and adiponectin (ADIPOQ) genes were considered to be associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Although the prevalence of NAFLD is increasing, there are limited numbers of studies about the association in Indonesian population.ObjectiveTo confirm whether specific variants of adiponutrin (PNPLA3) and adiponectin (ADIPOQ) genes are associated with NAFLD in Indonesian patients.MethodsData and DNA of 152 participants were obtained from a previous study in Dr. Kariadi Hospital, Semarang, Indonesia. PCR-RFLP analysis was performed for detection of PNPLA3 rs738409 and ADIPOQ rs2241767 variants. The diagnosis and severity of NAFLD were assessed according to NAFLD activity score (NAS) based on histopathology assessment of liverbiopsy.ResultsAllele G of PNPLA3rs738409 was associated with NAFLD in both bivariate (p=0.009, OR 2.52, CI 95% 1.25–5.07) and multivariate (p=0.008, OR 2.62, CI 95% 1.29%–5.32%) analysis, while ADIPOQ rs2241767 had no significant association. In NAFLD participants, both genotypes showed allele G was higher in the group of possible non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) – NASH (NAS >2) than in the simple steatosis group (NAS <2) i.e. 40.0% vs. 3.75% for the rs2241767 variant and 23.75% vs. 1.25% for the rs738409 variant, without significant association.ConclusionVariant PNPLA3 rs738409 was associated with NAFLD incidence in studied population. Among NAFLD participants, the frequency of both variants were found higher in the possible NASH – NASH group, yet needs to be confirmed with more participants and a multicenter study.Data and DNA of 152 participants were obtained from a previous study in Dr. Kariadi Hospital, Semarang, Indonesia. PCR-RFLP analysis was performed for detection of PNPLA3 rs738409 and ADIPOQ rs2241767 variants. The diagnosis and severity of NAFLD were assessed according to NAFLD activity score (NAS) based on histopathology assessment of liverbiopsy.

ABSTRACT Background: Strongly associated with obesity, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is considered the hepatic manifestation of the metabolic syndrome. It presents as simple steatosis and steatohepatitis, which can progress to cirrhosis and its complications. Among the therapeutic alternatives is bariatric surgery. Aim: To compare the effect of the two most frequent bariatric procedures (sleeve and bypass) on liver disease regarding to epidemiological, demographic, clinical and laboratory parameters. Methods: The results of intraoperative and 12 months after surgery liver biopsies were used. The NAFLD activity score (NAS) was used to assess and compare the stages of liver disease. Results: Sixteen (66.7%) patients underwent Bypass procedure and eight (33.3%) Sleeve. It was observed that the variation in the NAFLD activity score was significantly greater in the Bypass group than in Sleeve (p=0.028) and there was a trend regarding the variation in fibrosis (p=0.054). Conclusion: Both surgical techniques were effective in improving the hepatic histology of most operated patients. When comparing sleeve and bypass groups, bypass showed better results, according to the NAS score.

Abstract Objectives The aim of the study was to compare food patterns in patients with simple steatosis (SS) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Methods Prospective study was approved by LEC and enrolled subjects with confirmed non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (SS or NASH group). Nutrilogic software (Nutrilogic, Russia) was used for diet assessment. Dietary patterns were assessed according to the Healthy Eating Index (HEI): amounts of the major groups of foods and food products (grains, fruits, vegetables, dairy products, meats, fats and confectioneries) consumption were compared to the levels described in the HEI, and individual deviation rates were obtained. Nonparametric statistics (Mann-Whitney U test) was used to compare deviation rates found in subjects of SS and NASH groups. Results Subjects in NASH group (n = 22) were younger (Mean ± SD: 48.6 ± 13.4 y.o.) than those in SS group (n = 156; 56.5 ± 12.3 y.o., P = 0.008). Main macronutrients consumption did not differ between the groups. Although dietary patterns of major groups of foods consumption did not differ between SS and NASH groups, analysis of the foods subgroups revealed dissimilarity in the structure of vegetables and fats consumption. Patients with NASH consumed larger amounts of potatoes (0.14 ± 0.08 vs 0.11 ± 0.15, P = 0.006), and lower – of onions (0.02 ± 0.03 vs 0.07 ± 0.1, P = 0.006); they also consumed lower amounts of dairy butter (0.14 ± 0.44 vs 0.15 ± 0.21, P = 0.009) compared to subjects with simple steatosis. No other difference in the structure of vegetables (beans, root crops, leafy and other vegetables), fats (animal fats, vegetable oils, margarines) and other major groups of foods consumption was revealed. Conclusions Dietary patterns of patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and simple steatosis differ. The obtained results may help in diet modification in patients with NAFLD in case of confirmation in larger multicenter trials. Funding Sources Russian Science Foundation, grant #1976-30014.

The magnitude of the effect of fetuin-A and fetuin-B on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) remains undefined. Therefore, the aim of this study was to synthesize previous findings to obtain a reliable estimation of this relationship. This study was registered in PROSPERO with the number CRD42019126314. Studies published not later than March 2019, examining the relationship between fetuin-A, fetuin-B, and NAFLD, were identified by a systematic search in the electronic databases of the Web of Science, PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library. Pooled estimates of standardized mean difference (SMD), calculated using the random-effects model in a meta-analysis, were applied to estimate the strength of the association between fetuin-A, fetuin-B, and NAFLD. Thirty publications were identified and analyzed based on specified inclusion criteria. Collectively, they consisted of 3800 NAFLD participants and 3614 controls. Compared with the controls, significant higher values of the fetuin-A (SMD = 0.83, 95% CI: 0.59 to 1.07, Z = 6.82, p < 0.001) and fetuin-B (SMD = 0.18, 95% CI: 0.02 to 0.33, Z = 2.27, p = 0.023) were observed in NAFLD patients. Meanwhile, in the subgroup analysis, the effect value of fetuin-A in the NASH group was significantly higher than that in the NAFL group (p = 0.036). The findings of this study suggest that elevated fetuin-A and fetuin-B may independently indicate the occurrence of NAFLD. Nevertheless, further research is needed to confirm these results.
