Abstract

Circulating levels of four adipokines (adiponectin, TNF-α, leptin, and resistin) and the postprandial lipid and adiponectin responses to an oral fat load were assessed in 25 non-obese, non-diabetic patients with biopsy-proven nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and correlated with metabolic indices and liver histology. Circulating adiponectin was lower in NASH compared with controls (5,476 ± 344 vs. 11,548 ± 836 ng/mL; P = .00001) and on multiple regression analysis correlated negatively with liver steatosis, necroinflammation (OR = 5.0; P = .009), and fibrosis (OR = 8.0; P = .003).The magnitude of postprandial lipemia was significantly higher in NASH than in controls and was related to fasting adiponectin (β = −0.78; P = .00003). Controls showed a significant increase in serum adiponectin in response to the fat load, whereas patients with NASH showed a slight decrease. Postprandial free fatty acids response correlated inversely with adiponectin response in both groups and independently predicted the severity of liver steatosis in NASH (β = 0.51; P = .031). In conclusion , hypoadiponectinemia is present before overt diabetes and obesity appear and correlates with the severity of liver histology in NASH. Impaired postprandial lipid metabolism may be an additional mechanism linking hypoadiponectinemia and NASH and posing a higher cardiovascular risk to these subjects. The mechanism(s) underlying these differences are unknown, but the type of dietary fat seems to play a role. These findings may have important pathogenetic and therapeutic implications in both liver and metabolic disease. (Hepatology 2005.)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
