PREVALANCE OF HYPERTRIGLYCERIDEMIA IN NAFLD
Dr Akshayaa Kumar Aggarawal, Dr. Kumari Monika
Abstract :
Non–alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is now being recognised as one of the most common form of chronic liver disease in developing countries with the estimated prevalence 25–30% in general population. It is a major cause of liver related morbidity and mortality because of its potential progression to liver cirrhosis and subsequent liver failure. AIM: To evaluate the lipid abnormality in NAFLD patients and their comparison with normal patients MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 143 patients were admitted and evaluated for the study. From these, fasting lipid profile, fasting blood glucose levels and post prandial blood glucose levels were taken. Abdomen ultrasonography was done to divide the patients into two groups– with fatty liver (controls) and with normal liver (cases). RESULTS: The study showed that there was no significant correlation of blood glucose between the cases and controls group. However when lipid parameters were compared, there was significant correlation between control and cases for triglycerides (TG). CONCLUSION: Hypertriglyceridemia is an independent marker for NAFLD.
