简要总结
Patients with metabolic syndrome and Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) will be randomly allocated for the treatment with n-3 PUFA (3.6 g/day) or placebo for 12 months. At the beginning and at the end of the study basic clinical and anthropometric data, as well as parameters of liver steatosis and fibrosis will be tested.
详细描述
Patients with metabolic syndrome and Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) will be randomly allocated for the treatment with n-3 PUFA (3.6 g/day) or placebo for 12 months. At the beginning and at the end of the study basic clinical and anthropometric data will be recorded and the following parameters will be tested:
panel of biochemistry and liver function tests: triglycerides, cholesterol, HDLcholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, glucose, insulin, serum bilirubin, liver tests, thyroid hormones, bile acids and their metabolites, albumin, total protein.
Bioactive metabolites, Inflammatory markers Non-invasive serum markers of liver fibrosis and steatohepatitis. Hyaluronic acid, NAFLD fibrosis score, cytokeratine-18 fragments. Ultrasonography with non-invasive measurement of fibrosis and steatosis, magnetic resonance spectroscopy for visceral and liver fat determination.

结局指标
主要结局
Number of patients with decreased liver fat content.
时间窗: 12 months
Liver fat content in patients will be measured by magnetic resonance before and after the treatment. The number of patients with decreased liver fat content is expected to be higher in the treated group compare to placebo group.
次要结局
- Number of patients with progression of liver fibrosis.(12 months)
