1. Most common of all liver disorders & Abn. LFT.
2. Most frequent cause of chronic liver disease.
3. Affects about 10-24% of general population.
4. Up to 75% of individuals with Obesity, T2DM.
5. Children 3% and > 50% of obese children.

• 75% patients of NAFLD/NASH are women
• All ages are affected – Risk of NASH with age
• Caucasians > Hispanics > Africans > Asians
• Indian Fatty Liver – BMI < 25, Non obese, WC
• OSAS increases NASH; Its Rx. Reduces NASH

A. Mayo Clinic Score for NASH (Next slide)
B. HAIR index (HTN; ALT > 40; Insulin Resistance)
≥ 2 are 80% Sensitive, 89% Specific of NASH
C. BAAT index (BMI > 28; Age > 50; ALT > 2 times the
normal; increased Triglycerides)
≤ 1 has 100% Negative Predictive Value for NASH
18
Six Parameters included Calculation of the score

• Ht, Wt, BMI, WC • Hemogram complete
• Blood Pressure • USG Abdomen
• OGTT – IR, DM • HCV, HBsAg, ANA
• Fasting Lipid Profile • Liver Biopsy, CT Abd
• SB, SGPT, SGOT, AKP, • F and PP C-peptide
GGT, Serum Proteins • aPTT, PT, body fat

Diffuse fat accumulation in the liver at US.
The echogenicity of the liver is greater than that of the
renal cortex (rc). Intrahepatic vessels are not well depicted.
The ultrasound beam is attenuated posteriorly,
and the diaphragm is poorly delineated.
Diffuse fat accumulation in the liver at unenhanced
CT. The attenuation of the liver (15 HU) is
markedly lower than that of the spleen (40 HU).
Intrahepatic
vessels (v) also appear hyperattenuated in comparison
with the liver.
Diffuse fat accumulation in the liver at MR imaging.
Axial T1-weighted GRE images show a marked
decrease in the signal intensity of the liver on the opposed
phase image (a), compared with that on the in-phase
image (b).
• Liver biopsy gold standard for evaluation of
degree of hepatic necroinflammation and
fibrosis.
– Should be considered in situations when there is a
diagnostic uncertainty
– For assessment of histological disease severity in
patients with suspected advanced fibrosis
– In patients undergoing laparoscopy,
cholecystectomy, or bariatric surgery

Steatosis Inflammation Ballooning
• 0 : < 5% • 0 : No foci • 0 : None
• 1 : 5 – 33% • 1 : < 2 / 200x • 1 : Few cells
• 2 : 33 – 66% • 2 : 2-4 / 200x • 2 : Many cells
• 3 : > 66% • 3 : > 4 / 200x prominent
ballooning.

NAS 2 • No NASH

• Consists of treating liver disease as well as
the associated metabolic comorbidities
such as obesity, hyperlipidemia, insulin
resistance and T2DM
• Dietary restrictions and exercise cornerstone
of NAFLD management.

Diseases, and American College of Gastroenterology. Gastroenterology. 2012;142:1592-609.
• Bariatric surgery for weight loss has
been shown to be effective in improving
NASH
• But not to be prescribed routinely

• It is the main cause of liver enzymes; Isn’t that benign
• Spectrum of disease – NAFLD – NASH – Cirrhosis - HCC
• Insulin resistance, MS are the key pathogenic features
• DM, TG, Non fatty abdominal obesity, increasing age
• It is a marker of CV Risk. Rx. improve insulin sensitivity
• Modify underlying metabolic risk factors – diet, exercise
• Use Mayo scoring to predict NASH (fibrosis). No biopsy
