Brief Summary:
To assess the prevalance of non\_alcoholic fatty liver diseases in inflammatory bowel disease patients and its relation to type of treatment given and disease severity
Detailed Description:
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) including Crohns disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are chronic relapsing disorders that often require long-term therapy and follow up .
They are recognized for their complex pathophysiology that involves innate immune system deregulation and altered microbiome in genetically predisposed individuals. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) includes a wide spectrum of disorders, ranging from hepatic steatosis (NAFL) to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). NAFLD patients are at high risk for liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Also NAFLD is typically associated with altered metabolism and metabolic syndrome (MetS).
