Biochemical Profile And Various Treatment Modalities Of Patients With Non-alcoholic Steatohepatitis (nash)
Abstract :
Introduction: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is an increasingly recognized condition that may progress to end stage liver disease. Aim: The objective is to study the biochemical profile and various treatment modalities in patients of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Material and Methods:The present study was carried out on 60 patients of NASH over a period of one year at Pathology Department of GMC, Jammu which is a tertiary care centre. All patients with NASH were screened for various risk factors associated with NASH. Detailed history was taken and thorough clinical examination was done. Results: out of 60 patients, 28(46.66%) were males and 32(53.32%) were females. 85% of the patients were in the age group of 31-70 years. Conclusion: In the present study it was found that obesity, hyperlipidemia and diabetes mellitus were significantly associated with the NASH.
