Brief summary
Collect confirmed cases of NAFLD patients and enroll them in the study. Select patients with NASH and fibrosis stage F2-4 confirmed by liver biopsy, and collect clinical and pathological data for relevant evaluation and definition. Establish a NASH fibrosis reversal pathological evaluation system, based on a new reversal standard, establish non-invasive alternative indicators, and observe indicators.
Detailed description
Confirmed NAFLD patients were enrolled, and those with NASH and fibrosis F2-4 stages confirmed by liver biopsy were selected, and clinical and pathological data were collected for relevant evaluation and definition. A NASH fibrosis reversal pathological evaluation system was established based on the new standard, and an alternative non-invasive indicator and observation index were established based on the reversal standard.
Interventions
The patients were given health education and lifestyle intervention guidance, followed by lifestyle adjustment for at least 1 year and no more than 3 years, and a second liver biopsy was performed to evaluate liver histological changes.
