    Abstract Background: To compare the effects of α-lipoic acid (ALA), myo-inositol (MI) and propolis supplementation on metabolic parameters and liver function in obese patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) METHODS: Ninety-two obese patients with NAFLD were randomly allocated into one of the four groups (ALA, MI, propolis, and control groups) for 8 weeks. At pre-and post-intervention, anthropometric measures, metabolic parameters and liver function were assessed. Clinical effectiveness was assessed using Absolute Risk Reduction (ARR) and Number Needed to Treat (NNT).
    Results: After 8 weeks, apart from waist-to-hip ratio, all studied anthropometric measures decreased significantly in each of the groups over the trial. Although the greatest improvements in glycemic indices were observed in MI group (p < 0.05), the differences among the groups were not significant. Control group showed the greatest reduction in serum triglyceride level (p = 0.026) while the greatest improvements in serum total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels were observed in MI group (p = 0.043, p = 0.019 and p = 0.041, respectively). Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels reduced significantly in all groups, particularly in propolis group (p = 0.012). The greatest reduction in serum aspartate transaminase (AST) level was observed in control group (p < 0.001), however, the difference among the groups was statistically marginal (p = 0.058). The estimated NNTs for one grade reduction in liver steatosis for MI, ALA and propolis supplementation compared with control group were 1.5, 2.2 and 3, respectively.
    Conclusion: Dietary recommendation for weight loss accompanied by MI and then ALA supplementation improved metabolic parameters and liver steatosis. "Registered under ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier no: IRCT20100209003320N22".

    Abstract Background. This trial assessed the effects of a calorie-restricted diet (CRD) with hydroxycitric acid (HCA) supplementation on appetite-regulating hormones, obesity indices, body composition, and appetite in women with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Methods. This study was carried out on 44 overweight/obese women with NAFLD. The patients were randomly assigned into two groups, namely, “Intervention group” (receiving individual CRD plus HCA tablets per day) and “Control group” (receiving only CRD) for eight weeks. Obesity indices, body composition, appetite status, and serum levels of leptin and adiponectin were assessed before and after the intervention. Results. Forty patients completed the trial. At the end of the trial, although significant reductions were found in most of the studied obesity indices in the intervention group, there was only a significant decrease in waist circumference and waist-to-height ratio in the control group. Fat mass and muscle mass significantly decreased in the intervention group (p=0.044 and p=0.024, respectively), and the reduction in visceral fat in the intervention group was significantly greater than that in the control group (−0.49 kg vs −0.37 kg, p=0.024). Intra- and intergroup differences in serum leptin and adiponectin levels and their ratios before and after the trial were not significant. We found a negative and marginally significant correlation between percent of changes in serum adiponectin level and percent of changes in visceral adipose tissue (VAT) (r = −0.429, p=0.067) and BMI (r = −0.440, p=0.059) as well as an inverse relationship between percent of changes in leptin/adiponectin with VAT (r = −0.724, p<0.001) in the intervention group. Conclusion. HCA plus weight loss diet could significantly reduce visceral adipose tissue without any significant changes in serum leptin and adiponectin levels.

    Abstract We examined the association between soy isoflavone intake and risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) outcomes in adults. We searched the online databases for relevant studies published up to September 2021. In total, 13 publications were included in the systematic review and 12 in the meta-analysis. We found that a high intake of soy isoflavones was significantly associated with a lower risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) among whole populations (Pooled RR: 0.92, 95% CI: 0.85-0.99, I

    Abstract Myo-inositol (MI) is a carbocyclic sugar polyalcohol. MI has known to exert anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, and anti-diabetic activities. This study aimed to investigate the effects of MI supplementation on oxidative stress biomarkers in obese patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). In this double-blinded placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial, 51 newly diagnosed obese patients with NAFLD were randomly assigned to receive either MI (4 g/day) or placebo supplements accompanied by dietary recommendations for 8 weeks. Oxidative stress biomarkers, nutritional status, as well as liver enzymes and obesity indices were assessed pre- and post-intervention. A total of 48 patients completed the trial. Although anthropometric measures and obesity indices decreased significantly in both groups, the between-group differences adjusted for confounders were non-significant for these parameters, except for weight (

    Abstract Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has emerged as the most frequent chronic liver disease globally. NAFLD is strongly associated with metabolic syndrome and it has been recently suggested that to rename NAFLD as metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). NAFLD has been studied in different endocrine axes and accumulating body of clinical and experimental studies have suggested that NAFLD is associated with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), hypopituitarism, growth hormone deficiency (GHD), hypogonadism and other endocrine disorders. In fact, endocrine dysfunction may be considered as the major contributor for the development, progression, and severity of NAFLD. In the present comprehensive review, we discussed the epidemiological and clinical evidence on the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and management of NAFLD in endocrine disorders, with an emphasis on the effects of sex-specific hormones/conditions as well as molecular basis of NAFLD development in these endocrine diseases.
