Dynamic Changes and Risk Factors of Fibrosis and Steatosis Progression in Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

January 23, 2019 updated by: Hong You, Beijing Friendship Hospital
It is an observational study of non alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients with a calculated sample size of 90. Liver biopsy proved NAFLD patients will be recruited in this study for 2 years follow-up. Patients will be assessed at baseline, at every six months for blood count, liver function test, fasting blood-glucose, fasting insulin, ferritin, liver ultrasonography, and liver stiffness.
