Objective: Aim: To investigate the effectiveness of rifaximin and probiotics for the correction of intestinal permeability in patients with metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) in combination with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: The prospective interventional randomized investigation included 68 patients with MAFLD in combination with type 2 diabetes, who were examined and divided into the 2 groups of treatment.
Results: Results: The serum levels of interleukin (IL) - 6, IL-10 and zonulin, indicators of liver functional activity, liver attenuation coefficient between treatment group vs.
Background: Reduction of cardiovascular risk (CVR) is based on the correction of risk factors, especially dyslipidemia. Due to the limiting factors of conventional lipid-lowering medications, the investigation of alternative approaches is necessary.
Methods: The present open, comparative, randomized, and parallel investigation was conducted on 77 patients.
Objective: The aim: Our aim was to assess the hemostatic potential of patients with liver cirrhosis and atrial fibrillation by LPTEG global coagulation assay, to investigate changes in LPTEG parameters according to the stage of liver cirrhosis and compare results with liver cirrhosis group.
Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: We performed a prospective cross-sectional study including 70 patients with liver cirrhosis and atrial fibrillation, 36 patients with liver cirrhosis and 20 healthy individuals. LPTEG parameters were measured using ARP-01M "Mednord" in order to assess coagulation abnormalities.
