Systemic Levels of Lipid Peroxidation and Its Metabolic and Dietary Correlates in Patients with Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis
Abstract
Background and aim Products of systemic lipid peroxidation are important in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease. Subjects with NASH have increased hepatic lipid peroxidation, but it is unknown if they have increased oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation systemically. Therefore, we conducted a study to measure the circulating levels of lipid peroxidation products and their metabolic and nutritional correlates in patients with NASH and controls. Methods Systemic lipid peroxidation was assessed by measuring the levels of oxidized LDL (ox-LDL) and thiobarbituric acid-reacting substances (TBARS) in 21 subjects with NASH and 19 controls. Correlations were made between serum lipid peroxidation and nutritional determinants of oxidative stress and defense, serum lipids, insulin resistance, transaminases, and liver histology. The short-term nutrient intake was analyzed by maintaining a 3-wk dietary diary. Results The serum levels of ox-LDL were significantly higher in NASH patients compared to controls (56 +/- 16 U/L vs 40 +/- 12 U/L, respectively, p Conclusion Subjects with NASH have significantly higher systemic levels of lipid peroxidation products and this could indicate an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. More studies are needed to evaluate this possibility.

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.
