Patients with steatosis had significantly higher preoperative fasting insulin (41.4 versus 21.1 mIU/L, p = 0.000), and patients with fibrosis had significantly higher glycated hemoglobin (6.1% versus 5.5%, p = 0.033) and alanine aminotransferase (81.5 versus 52.7 mg/dL, p = 0.043).
Hp 2-2 patients treated with VitE versus placebo showed significant histologic improvement (51% vs. 20%; OR=4.2; P=0.006), resolution of steatohepatitis (44% vs. 12%; OR=6.2; P=0.009), decrease in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease Activity Score (NAS) (-2.2 vs. -0.6; P=0.001), and decrease in liver enzymes alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase.
Chronic alcohol feeding caused liver injury and steatosis, shown by significantly higher levels of plasma alanine transaminase and aspartate transaminase activity, and by hematoxylin and eosin staining in Ad‑L1 and Ad‑null mice.
LLDT-8 treatment significantly inhibited hepatic injury featured by the decrease of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST), the lessening of hepatic ballooning and macrovesicular steatosis.
Serum levels of triglycerides, aspartate transaminase, and alanine transaminase and hepatic steatosis were also significantly improved in the ISO-treated group compared to the high-fat diet control group.
The persistence of alanine aminotransferase >34 IU/L (27% versus 7% of patients, P < .001) was independent of the persistence of steatosis on ultrasonography (39% versus 37% of patients) 1 year after RYGB and SG, respectively.
CAP evaluation showed steatosis in 36.3% of baseline patients (8/22), associated with higher BMI, waist circumference, insulin, and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels.
Saroglitazar also improved alanine aminotransferase levels and fatty liver (evaluated by FibroScan™) in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease patients with diabetic dyslipidemia.
The significant positive correlation of FGF-21 with ALT, gamma glutamyltransferase (GGT), triglycerides, homeostatic model assessment-insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), the degree of liver steatosis in ultrasound and TILC in <sup>1</sup>H-MRS were found.
The results showed that the increased plasma aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) activities, the increased hepatic triglyceride and total cholesterol levels, and fatty liver in HF-diet-fed rats were significantly decreased after supplementation with RMD.
The LCPUFAs eicosapentaenoic acid (C20:5 n-3, EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (C22:6 n-3, DHA) have a positive effect in diminishing liver steatosis, OS, and the levels of aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase and pro-inflammatory cytokines, with improvement of insulin sensitivity and adiponectin levels.
After 20 days of treatment, the animals were killed and the following parameters were evaluated: Gingival Bleeding Index (GBI), Probing Pocket Depth (PPD), Myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, Alveolar Bone Loss (ABL) for periodontal tissues; histopathological examination of gingival and liver tissues (Steatosis score); glutathione and malondialdehyde concentrations in the liver, serum levels of alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase.
There was a significantly higher mean ALT level in patients with hepatic steatosis (42.2 U/L; 95% CI 38.4-46.0) compared to patients without (28.8 U/L; 95% CI 25.7-31.9) (P < 0.0001).
The multivariate analysis demonstrated statistical significance only in the association of body mass index (odds ratio [OR] = 1.22; 95% CI 1.05-1.41; P = 0.01); fatty liver (OR = 2.32; 95% CI 1.58-9.19; P = 0.02); alanine transaminase (OR = 1.04; 95% CI 1.02-1.09; P = 0.04) and cumulative MTX dosage (OR = 1.03; 95% CI 1.01-1.04; P = 0.001).
Nine to 16 years postpartum, a clinical examination was performed, with measurement of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and γ-glutamyl transferase, from which fatty liver scoring indices were calculated to assess liver fat score, fatty liver index, hepatic steatosis index, and liver fat percentage.
The treatment with betulin (50 and 100 mg/kg b.w., intragastric) during this period attenuated the histological signs of steatohepatitis and lowered the serum and liver triglyceride contents, as well as the serum activities of aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, and alkaline phosphatase.
We evaluated changes in aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), gamma-glutamyltransferase (γ-GTP), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and fatty liver index (FLI) at 3 months of treatment; the proportion of patients with abnormal liver function whose liver function normalized after 3 months of treatment; and correlations between changes in ALT levels and efficacy variables/laboratory values.
The effect on liver function was evaluated by changes in the fatty liver index, and changes in AST and ALT were evaluated in patients with normal and abnormal liver function.
