THE EFFECT OF COMPREHENSIVE TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH NON-ALCOHOLIC FATTY LIVER DISEASE IN COMBINATION WITH PREDIABETES ON THE LIPID PROFILE.

OBJECTIVE

The aim: To evaluate the efficiency of the proposed therapy, which included recommendations for nutrition, physical activity and treatment with rosuvastatin, omega-3 PUFA and ursodeoxycholic acid, on the indicators of the lipid profile in patients with NAFLD and prediabetes.

PATIENTS AND

METHODS

Materials and methods: 78 patients with impaired glucose tolerance were examined. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 55 patients with prediabetes and concomitant NAFLD were included in the study. All patients underwent a comprehensive clinical examination, which included anthropometric data collection, objective examination, and venous blood sampling for laboratory tests.

RESULTS

Results

The data obtained after 12 months of proposed treatment revealed a statistically significant improvement of indicators lipid profile in patients with prediabetes and NAFLD. Moreover, no significant difference between mean values of HDLC, LDLC, TG and atherogenic coefficient of almost healthy individuals and the corresponding indicators of treated patients detected.

CONCLUSION

Conclusions

therapy which included recommendations for nutrition, physical activity and treatment with rosuvastatin, omega-3 PUFA and ursodeoxycholic acid significantly improved lipid metabolism in patients with prediabetes and NAFLD.
