Brief Summary:
The main purpose of this study is to investigate whether an online lifestyle modification program for people with Metabolic Associated Fatty Liver Disease MAFLD through a mobile application produces a significant reduction in liver steatosis and is associated with a higher rate of weight loss compared to standard recommendations currently indicated in Primary Care
Detailed Description:
Chronic liver disease are very common and potentially severe For the most part they are diagnosed in an advanced stage which prevents the introduction of curative treatments
MAFLD is currently the most common cause of chronic liver disease affecting approximately 25 of the worlds population MAFLD is characterized by an excessive accumulation of liver fat associated with insulin resistance IR which is defined by the presence of steatosis in 5 of hepatocytes according to histological analysis
Currently the only effective strategy for treating MAFLD is weight loss Several studies show that a 3-5 weight loss manages to reduce hepatic steatosis and associated metabolic parameters Despite this a reduction of at least 7-10 is required to improve fibrosis Guidelines from the European Association for the Study of Liver Diseases EASL and the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases AASLD recommend following an energy-restricted diet adjusted to the Mediterranean diet excluding MAFLD-promoting components processed products and high in added fructose and perform physical activity in order to achieve this goal However it is a difficult goal to achieve and maintain over time Epidemiological evidence recommends implementing structured lifestyle modification programs with the goal of losing weight
In people with MFGNA participation in structured lifestyle programs may be compromised by work and time constraints An application-based online intervention may be more appropriate for young people people of working age and those living far from primary care EHealth technology is a possible resource for promoting behavior change but is a little-studied field in lifestyles modification of people with MAFLD Given the lack of information regarding lifestyle modification programs in people with MAFLD as the main therapeutic intervention in Primary Care PC we consider to analyze the effectiveness of an online program based on the Mediterranean diet with calorie restriction associated with specific goals of weight loss and physical activity which allows to reduce hepatic steatosis of individuals with MAFLD
This study along with studies of early detection of chronic liver disease through liver elastography LiverScreen aims to be the beginning of the approach to chronic liver disease in Primary Care The aim of this study is to evaluate a strategy for treating MAFLD
