Brief Summary

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

This study will be a randomized, controlled, parallel study that aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Rosuvastatin versus Coenzyme Q10 on nonalcoholic steatohepatitis patients.

Detailed Description

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

* This study will be a randomized, controlled, parallel study.
* It will be conducted on 46 patients diagnosed with NASH
* The patients will be randomized into two groups:

Group 1(n=23): patients will receive Rosuvastatin 20mg/day orally

Group 2(n=23): patients will receive Coenzyme Q10 100 mg/day orally

The patients will be selected from community awareness campaigns about NASH in Alexandria , Egypt . Written informed consent will be obtained from all patients. This study will be approved by the Research Ethics Committee of Tanta University and Alexandria university.

The study duration will be 3 months.
