Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), the most common chronic hepatic disease, has become a leading health problem worldwide. The present review summarized the methods and mechanisms to treat NAFLD, including the Mediterranean diet, physical activity and exercise, bariatric surgery and specific therapeutic agents, including statins, peroxisome proliferator‑activated receptor agonists, cenicriviroc and farnesoid X receptor agonists. Biologically active substances, such as peptides, alkaloids, polyphenolic compounds, silymarin, antibiotics, fatty acids, vitamins, probiotics, synbiotics and lamiaceae have also demonstrated actions that combat NAFLD. Considering their different mechanisms of action, combining some of them may prove an efficacious treatment for NAFLD. In this light, the present review describes recent progress and future prospects in treating NAFLD.

Background And Aims: This study evaluated the predictive value of the APF risk score in East Asian patients undergoing open nephrectomy and its correlation with hypertension and NAFLD.
Methods And Results: A retrospective study used the clinical data of 82 patients who underwent ON between January 2010 and December 2022. Per their APF score, patients were categorized into groups A (0-2 points) and B (3-4 points).

Background: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has developed as a leading public wellness challenge as a result of changes in dietary patterns. Unfortunately, there is still a lack of effective pharmacotherapy methods for NAFLD. Wang's empirical formula (WSF) has demonstrated considerable clinical efficacy in treating metabolic disorders for years.

This study evaluated the ability of the triglyceride (TG) to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio to identify individuals at risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in the non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) population. We retrospectively studied 4,769 patients with NAFLD from the Affiliated Hospital of Hangzhou Normal University (2020-2023). Binary logistic regression models were used to evaluate the association between the TG/HDL-C ratio and lipid parameters with T2DM.

Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) is the most common form of primary liver cancer, with cirrhosis being its strongest risk factor. Interestingly, an increasing number of HCC cases is also observed without cirrhosis. We developed an HCC model via intrasplenic injection of highly tumorigenic HCC cells, which, due to cellular tropism, invade the liver and allow for a controllable disease progression.

Background: The global prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is approximately 30%, and the condition can progress to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) has been shown to be effective in treating obesity and related disorders, including NAFLD.
Objective: In this study, comprehensive machine learning was used to identify biomarkers for precise treatment of NAFLD from the perspective of MBS.
