No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Non alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the main causes of development of chronic liver disease and cirrhosis. There are no published studies which have investigated the incidence of NAFLD in pregnant women or the correlation between the metabolic changes in pregnancy and this phenomenon.

We aimed in our study to explore the incidence of NAFLD in pregnancy by ultrasonography (US) during the end of the pregnancy or immediately after birth (after 36 weeks) and to look for a correlation between fatty liver and demographic, clinical, nutritional and laboratory data during pregnancy.
