Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This non-randomized clinical trial was performed to clarify the effect of cigarette smoking reduction on liver function and some anthropocentric indices in smoker patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

After excluding other causes of high aminotransferase level, participants with persistent elevated serum aminotransferase levels and evidence of fatty liver in ultrasonography were presumed to have non-alcoholic steatohepatitis. Those with NAFLD liver fat score greater than (-0.64) were enrolled. They were assigned to lifestyle modification alone or lifestyle modification plus smoking reduction groups.

Liver fat content, fasting serum glucose, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, triglyceride, cholesterol, high and low-density lipoprotein, homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance(HOMA-IR), and anthropometric measurements (body mass index and waist circumference) were checked at baseline and six months later.
