Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Reduction of level of steatosis and fibrosis in patients with NAFLD (non-alcoholic fatty liver disease)/NASH (non-alcoholic steatohepatitis) by administration of antiplatelet therapy Diagnosis and evaluation of course of NAFLD/NASH are obtained by liver MRI, Fibroscan, hematologic and clinical parameters at baseline and after 6months of follow-up

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Reduction of liver volume and liver parameters (GOT/GPT) in patients with NAFLD/NASH by administration of antiplatelet therapy Diagnosis and evaluation of course of liver volume and GOT/GPT are obtained by liver MRI and blood drawing at baseline and after 6months of follow-up
