Adipokine Genetic Variations in predictingNAFLD Progression to NASH in Egyptian Patients
- Conditions
- NAFLDNASH - Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis
- Interventions
- Genetic: DNA extraction
- Registration Number

- Brief Summary
Due to the limited data concerning Egyptian population. authors aimed to investigate the differentadipokine gene polymorphism related to non alcoholic fatty liver disease incidence, prognosis and progression to steotosis and also to find different related factors including obesitu, diabetes and liver enzymes level
