Research Abstract

We conducted the prospective cohort study among patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. This study suggested that heavier body weight, higher serum iron level, diabetes mellitus and carbohydrate intake within 2 hours before sleep were positively associated with disease aggravation. In addition, walking, physical exercise and intake of fish, natto, brown rice were preferable for disease control. However, these findings were still unstable due to short follow up periods and lower statistical power. Thus, further studies would be needed to ascertain the causality of these findings.
