This article presents the results of studies obtained by observing patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) on the background of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). As a result of the analysis it was found that the frequency of exacerbations of COPD with hospitalization in overweight patients in the presence of NAFLD leads to increased imbalance of adipose tissue hormones in the form of decreased adiponectin and increased leptin, and correlates with impaired lipid metabolism and severe grade of hepatic steatosis. In patients with frequent exacerbations, there is a significant positive correlation between leptin levels and TNF-a factor, which may be associated with an increase in overall inflammation. The revealed imbalance of adiponectin and leptin content in patients with COPD with overweight is a factor in the progression of NAFLD.

The aim: Was increase the effectiveness of treatment in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) comorbid with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) by using ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in combination with ademethionine. Materials and methods: Under observation was 98 patients with a diagnosis of NAFLD and COPD group II or their combination. Patients were divided into 3 groups: 1 (n = 36) – COPD + NASH – in addition to standard COPD therapy received UDCA 15 mg / kg / day – 6 months and ademethionine 1000 mg IV once a day for 10 days, followed by oral administration of 500 mg 2 times per day – 20 days, and group 2 (n = 32) – COPD + hepatic steatosis – in addition to standard therapy – UDCA 15 mg / kg / day – 6 months. Group 3 (n = 30) – COPD received standard therapy for COPD. Results: UDCA with ademethionine on the background of standard COPD therapy reduces the clinical manifestations of NAFLD and normalizes liver function. The combination of UDCA with ademethionine not only has a positive effect on the course of NAFLD, but also reduces the intensity of dyspnea, systemic inflammation, improves the external respiration function and reduces anxiety and depression. Patients receiving UDCA + ademethionine for 6 months of follow-up had no exacerbations of COPD. Conclusions: UDCA in combination with ademethionine in COPD courses have a positive effect on the course of NAFLD, and also reduces the intensity of dyspnea, improves the external respiratory function and reduces the frequency of COPD hospitalization.

Lipid Metabolism Disorders

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is currently among the most common liver diseases. Unfavorable data on the epidemiology of metabolic syndrome and obesity have increased the attention of clinicians and researchers to the problem of NAFLD. The research results allow us to emphasize the systemicity and multifactoriality of the pathogenesis of liver parenchyma lesion. At the same time, many aspects of its classification, etiology, and pathogenesis remain controversial. Local and systemic metabolic disorders are also a part of the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and can influence its course. The present article analyzes the metabolic pathways mediating the links of impaired lipid metabolism in NAFLD and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Free fatty acids, cholesterol, and ceramides are involved in key metabolic and inflammatory pathways underlying the pathogenesis of both diseases. Moreover, inflammation and lipid metabolism demonstrate close links in the comorbid course of NAFLD and COPD.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is independently linked to cardiometabolic morbidity and mortality. Low-grade inflammation, oxidative stress and ectopic fat, common features of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), might contribute to the development of NAFLD.We aimed to investigate the prevalence of NAFLD and to evaluate the relationship between various types of liver damage and COPD severity, comorbidities and circulating inflammatory cytokines. Validated noninvasive tests (FibroMax: SteatoTest, NashTest and FibroTest) were used to assess steatosis, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and liver fibrosis. Patients underwent an objective assessment of COPD comorbidities, including sleep studies. Biological parameters included a complete lipid profile and inflammatory markers.In COPD patients the prevalence of steatosis, NASH and fibrosis were 41.4%, 36.9% and 61.3%, respectively. In multivariate analysis, SteatoTest and FibroTest were significantly associated with sex, body mass index (BMI), untreated sleep apnoea and insulin resistance, and, in addition, COPD Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease stage for SteatoTest. Patients with steatosis had higher tumour necrosis factor-α levels and those with NASH or a combination of liver damage types had raised leptin levels after adjustment for age, sex and BMI.We concluded that NAFLD is highly prevalent in COPD and might contribute to cardiometabolic comorbidities.

The purpose of the study was to determine markers of immune inflammation in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease combined with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Materials and methods. The observation revealed 82 patients who were treated in the pulmonology and gastroenterology department of the Andriy Novak Transcarpathian Regional Clinical Hospital during 2018-2020 with a diagnosis of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease II group B and C. Among the examined there were 61.0% (50) men and 40.0% (32) women. The average age was 57.8±1.5 years old. Results and discussion. As a result of the conducted research it is established that increased levels of chronic immune inflammation markers were observed in all examined with significant increase in patients with a comorbid condition. The highest concentrations of C-reactive protein were found in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease combined with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with frequent exacerbations and hospitalization, and exceeded the normal values by 8.3 times. The levels of tumor necrosis factor-α and neopterin in patients with frequent exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and hospitalization were by 2.7 times and 1.9 times higher than in patients with a small number of exacerbations and by 3.2 and 3.9 times higher than in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease without chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The indexes of interleukin-6, transforming growth factor-β, the number of IgG antibodies to neutrophil elastase and the level of tissue inhibitor of matrix proteinases-1 remain consistently high in all patients with combined pathology of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease regardless of the frequency of exacerbations, thus supporting inflammation even in remission. Elastase antibody levels correlate directly with the levels of the tissue metalloproteinase-1 inhibitor and increase with the degree of severety of fibrosis, which may indicate a high level of serum neutrophil elastase activity in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in combination with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and its participation in fibrosis. Conclusion. Patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in combination with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease showed an increased level of chronic systemic inflammation of low intensity based on the analysis of C-reactive protein, tumor necrosis factor-α, neopterin and interleukin-6 compared with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease without chronic obstructive pulmonary disease even in remission, which indicates an aggravating course of the disease in combination of two pathologies. Stably high concentration of IgG antibodies to neutrophil elastase may indirectly indicate the maintenance of the activity of this enzyme in the serum of patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and confirms its participation in liver fibrogenesis

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common disorder with an increasing prevalence, characterised by persistent respiratory symptoms and airflow limitation. Systemic inflammation is involved in the pathogenesis of COPD and can also predispose to metabolic disorders (e.g., metabolic syndrome (MetS) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)). Such comorbidities can negatively affect COPD outcomes, cardiovascular risk, and quality of life. Apart from NAFLD, abnormal peri-organ or intra-organ fat (APIFat) could be considered as markers for cardiometabolic diseases and even for COPD. The present narrative review considers the associations of COPD with MetS, NAFLD, and other APIFat, including epicardial, perirenal, peripancreatic, and intramuscular adipose tissue. Further research is needed to define these relationships and identify any potential clinical implications.

Abstract. Some epidemiological evidence suggests an inverse correlation between non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) frequency and vitamin D levels. Likewise, a beneficial effect of vitamin D on diabetes mellitus (DM) and insulin resistance has been observed, but this is an unsolved issue. Thus, we aimed to investigate the prevalence of hypovitaminosis D in a NAFLD Brazilian population and its association with disease severity and presence of comorbidities. In a cross-sectional study, the clinical, biochemical and histological parameters of 139 NAFLD patients were evaluated according to two different cut-off points of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels (20 ng/mL and 30 ng/mL). The mean age of the population was 56 ± 16 years, most patients were female (83%), 72% had hypertension, 88% dyslipidemia, 46% DM, 98% central obesity, and 82% metabolic syndrome. Serum vitamin D levels were < 30 ng/mL in 78% of the patients, and < 20 ng/mL in 35%. The mean vitamin D level was 24.3 ± 6.8 ng/mL. The comparison between the clinical, biochemical and histological characteristics of the patients according to the levels of vitamin D showed no significant difference. Most patients with NAFLD had hypovitaminosis D, but low vitamin D levels were not related to disease severity and the presence of comorbidities.
