According to a new study, non-heavy alcohol use on liver health are often contradictory, both within the general population and among those known to have non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and at-risk individuals.
Researchers revealed in a recent study how obese adults with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and morbid obesity, those who underwent bariatric surgery had significantly less chances of cardiovascular events in the years that followed.
Researchers find Bariatric surgery lowers risk of heart disease
Obese people with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease after bariatric surgery experienced significantly fewer severe cardiovascular events. The researchers revealed that obese patients are less likely to develop adverse cardiovascular events such as heart attacks, angina or stroke.
Osaka [Japan], September 12 (ANI): Health issues related to obesity can take many different forms. Obese people are more likely to have nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a kind of fatty liver disease that can lead to cancer.
Tokyo [Japan], September 12 (ANI): Obesity can cause a number of health problems. Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a kind of fatty liver disease that can lead to cancer, is more common in obese people. Treatment for NASH patients has yet to be discovered, owing in part to the lack of suitable and efficient methods for isolating and analysing the characteristics of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), which have been shown to play a significant role in the progression of NASH-associated liver fibrosis and liver cancer.
Washington [US], August 15 (ANI): According to a recent study from the University of Michigan Life Sciences Institute, a hormone generated by fat cells can slow the growth of liver tumours in mice.
Washington [US], August 7 (ANI): Scientists have found that elevated blood levels of an amino acid called homocysteine correlate strongly with the severity of an advanced form of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. They also found vitamin B12 and folic acid could be used to prevent and/or delay disease progression.
Washington [US], July 15 (ANI): Researchers have created a liquid biopsy test, which uses two circulating proteins, to test for major liver diseases. The test was found to be highly accurate, sensitive, and specific for both NASH and liver fibrosis.
