Summary

The aim of the study is to examine the influence of hepatic inflammation or damage on physical performance (maximal oxygen uptake, VO2max) depending on the histologic state of the liver. The study population are patients with fatty liver disease and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). All study participants obtain an individual training plan with individual and group training sessions for a period of 8 weeks. At the beginning and end of the training phase a sport physiological examination is carried out. In the study group the effect of regular examinations is surveyed by surrogate parameters of liver inflammation.
