Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 6
Abstract
Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a major cause of liver related morbidity. It occurs even more frequently in patients with metabolic syndrome. Patients with NAFLD have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease because these diseases share several risk factors and surrogate markers like obesity, insulin resistance, diabetes mellitus type 2, hypertension and hyperlipidemia. Objectives: To study the various biochemical parameters in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease patients. Material and Methods: The present study was conducted in the Department of Medicine M.G.M. Medical College & M.Y. Hospital, Indore on 65 patients with ultrasonographic finding of fatty liver disease with no history of alcohol. Various biochemical parameters like serum cholesterol, serum triglycerides, ALT, AST were measured and recorded. For analysis, statistical software SPSS latest Version 20.0 was used. The results were analysed using the appropriate statistics. Results: In our Study we found that 65% patients had elevated Triglyceride level and only 29% patients had hypercholesterolemia. We also found that 49% patients had elevated ALT level and only 26% patients had elevated AST level. Conclusion: our study shows higher triglyceride level is more associated with NAFLD than cholesterol level but the values of ALT and AST were unremarkeble in cases of NAFLD.
