简要总结
The primary objective of this study is to assess efficacy of intragastric balloon for weight loss in obese patients who also concurrently have NASH.
详细描述
Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a growing and leading etiology of chronic liver disease worldwide resulting in substantial morbidity and mortality.
Given recent data confirming weight loss as an effective treatment strategy for NASH and the recent availability of endoscopic bariatric therapies recently described by the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) and approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the investigators seek to primarily study efficacy of intragastric balloon for weight loss in obese patients having NASH. Secondary objective would be to assess whether the use of intragastric balloon combined with lifestyle intervention can improve liver histology in NASH with significant fibrosis over lifestyle intervention alone in a prospective paired study.
