Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • change in concentration of plasma metabolites as determined by nuclear magnetic resonance

    plasma NMR metabolomics concentrations (mmol/L)

    change between follow-up visit and pre-surgery visit , expected average 10 years

  • change in severity of NAFLD as determined by elastography

    elastography (kPa)

    change between follow-up visit and pre-surgery visit , expected average 10 years

  • change in severity of NAFLD as determined by magnetic resonance spectroscopy

    intrahepatic triglyceride content by proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (%)

    change between follow-up visit and pre-surgery visit , expected average 10 years

  • change in severity of NAFLD as determined by liver histology

    liver biopsy from individuals with clinical indication (SAF score)

    change between follow-up visit and pre-surgery visit , expected average 10 years
