BACKGROUND: Fatty liver disease comprises a wide range of related liver disorders affecting mainly people who drink no or minimal amounts of alcohol. Silymarin is a member of the Carduus marianum family that has been used for centuries to treat different diseases. There is little evidence supporting its efficacy in humans.
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effects of Silymarin in patients with non alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) or recently renamed metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).
METHODS: We searched PubMed, SCOPUS, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library for relevant clinical trials assessing the use of silymarin in patients with NAFLD. A risk of bias assessment was performed using Cochrane's risk of bias tool. We included the following outcomes: alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), γ-glutamyl transferase (GGT), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein (HDL) (mg/dL), degree of fibrosis resolution, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and HOMA-IR. We analyzed continuous data using mean difference (MD) and relative 95% confidence interval (CI).
RESULTS: We included nine clinical trials. We found that silymarin significantly reduced the levels of ALT (MD= -17.12 [-28.81, -4.43]), (P < 0.004), AST (MD= -12.56 [-19.02, -6.10]), (P < 0.0001) and TG (MD = -22.60 [-23.83, -21.38]) (p < 0.00001). It also improved HDL (MD= 2.13 [1.60, 2.66]), (P < 0.01)). There was no significant difference regarding GGT (P=o.07), TC (P= 0.52), LDL (P= 0.06), HOMA-IR (P= 0.06) and BMI (p=0.1).One study reported significant improvement in the degree of fibrosis (P = 0.023).
CONCLUSION: Silymarin treatment significantly reduces biochemical and transaminase levels in patients with MASLD.
