Study of liver fat disease with heart and metabolism problems
Part of Digestive system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at people with fatty liver disease and common health issues like obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, or abnormal cholesterol. It may help researchers understand how liver fat and heart/metabolism problems relate and how they affect health over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years old or older.
- You must have at least one of these: obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, or abnormal cholesterol.
- You should not drink more than about 1–2 alcoholic drinks per day on average (women >20 g/day or men >30 g/day).
- You should not have hepatitis B or hepatitis C infection based on blood tests.
- You should not have cirrhosis (scarring of the liver) or other long-term liver diseases besides fatty liver.
- You should not have active cancer, autoimmune liver disease, or other long-term infections/autoimmune conditions.

This study checks how fatty liver disease (a condition where fat builds up in the liver) affects the heart. If you have this liver condition and are between 18 and 65, you may help doctors understand the link between liver health and heart function.
This study follows adults with nonalcohol-related fatty liver disease (NAFLD) to better understand the condition and what factors affect it. It may help researchers learn which patients are most at risk and how care can be improved in the future.
This study looks at blood cells and factors in people with metabolic diseases like fatty liver, prediabetes, or type 2 diabetes. It aims to better understand these conditions by comparing them with healthy volunteers.
This registry collects health and lifestyle information from adults with suspected or confirmed fatty liver (NAFLD) to help researchers better understand the condition. You may be asked about diet, exercise, alcohol intake, and some liver-related tests.
This study collects information about metabolic and unexplained (cryptogenic) liver disease and looks at “omics” tests, which are lab tests that measure patterns in blood or tissue to learn what drives the disease. It may help researchers better understand fatty liver and related serious complications, like liver scarring and liver cancer.
This study follows people who have been confirmed to have fatty liver disease seen on a liver sample. It aims to understand the condition over time and how different causes and health factors may affect it.
