Studying fatty liver disease in people with inflammatory bowel disease
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at how common non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is in people with inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn's or colitis). Researchers want to learn more about the link between the two conditions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how a specific gut bacteria (Ruminococcus gnavus) and its byproducts are linked to fatty liver disease (MAFLD). It compares people with the condition to healthy individuals to better understand the connection.
This study is gathering information from people with active Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, and from people without IBD. Researchers will look at samples from the colon to learn more about these conditions.
This study checks how often people with Crohn's or ulcerative colitis also have fatty liver disease. It uses a painless scan to measure liver stiffness and fat. If you have IBD, you may join to help researchers learn about the link between these conditions.
This study looks at changes in fats (lipids) in the blood and the lining of the gut in people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). It may help researchers understand IBD better and find new ways to treat it.
This study looks at what drives non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and how it affects the body, including immune-related changes. You may be invited if you have confirmed fatty liver disease or, alternatively, if you are a healthy person with no liver disease.
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.
