Blood markers may reveal hidden liver damage in fatty liver patients

NCT ID NCT07513922

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study looks at whether certain blood test results (hs-CRP, triglycerides, and glucose) can help identify liver scarring in people with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Researchers will observe 96 adults who have NAFLD and check their blood markers alongside liver scans. The goal is to find a simpler way to detect liver fibrosis without needing a biopsy.

Who is studied

Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is the most prevalent chronic liver disease in the world, affecting one-fourth of the global population, and represents a serious public health issue. NAFLD encompasses a broad spectrum of liver abnormalities, ranging from simple hepatic steatosis, which is thought to be benign, to non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) without fibrosis and progressing to fibrotic NASH. The evolution of liver fibrosis results in irreversible architectural changes of the liver and can progress to Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) (Sheka et al., 2020; Zhou et al., 2025). NAFLD is associated with an increased risk of systemic metabolic disorders, such as hyperuricemia, hyperlipidemia, IR, and hyperglycemia. These metabolic disorders, in combination with NAFLD, contribute to the risk of developing extrahepatic malignancies and cardiovascular diseases, which are the main causes of extrahepatic mortality (Li et al., 2022).
