NCT06443723

Brief Summary

The aim of this study was to examine the association between metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) in participants who had undergone cholecystectomy and those who had not undergone cholecystectomy. MAFLD is defined as hepatic steatosis(with ultrasonography) entity in addition to the presence of overweight or obesity, diabetes mellitus, or evidence of metabolic dysfunction. In this way, the long-term effects of cholecystectomy surgeries, which are commonly performed in the society and thought to be harmless, will be evaluated.

    fasting plasma glucose \>126mg/dL

    through study completion, an average of 4 months

  • definition of overweight

    BMI \>25 kg/m2

    through study completion, an average of 4 months

  • Upper limits of waist circumference

    ≥102 cm in men and 88 cm in women

    through study completion, an average of 4 months

  • Definition of pre-diabetes

    fasting plasma glucose of 100-125 mg/dL

    through study completion, an average of 4 months

  • Blood pressure upper limit

    ≥130/85 mmHg

    through study completion, an average of 4 months

  • HDL-cholesterol levels

    ≥1.70 mmol/L

    through study completion, an average of 4 months

  • Diagnosis of MAFLD

    hepatic steatosis + (diabetes mellitus and/or overweight and/or metabolic dysfunction) metabolic dysfunction is defined as the presence of at least two criteria(Pre-diabetes, TG, HDL, blood pressure, waist circumference)

    through study completion, an average of 4 months

Study Arms (2)

cholecystectomy

EXPERIMENTAL

Evaluation of hepatosteatosis by hepatobiliary ultrasonography in cholecystectomy patients. Height, hip, waist circumference, blood pressure measurement and hemogram, lipid parameters.

Diagnostic Test: USG, blood tests, waist, hip, height and blood pressure measurements

Control

EXPERIMENTAL

Evaluation of hepatosteatosis by hepatobiliary ultrasonography in participants without cholecystectomy. Height, hip, waist circumference, blood pressure measurement and hemogram, lipid parameters.

Diagnostic Test: USG, blood tests, waist, hip, height and blood pressure measurements

Interventions

MAFLD is defined as hepatic steatosis entity in addition to the presence of overweight or obesity, DM, or evidence of metabolic dysfunction. Metabolic dysfunction (two or more of the following) 1. waist circumference ≥ 90 cm in men and 88 cm in women, 2. blood pressure ≥ 130/85 mmHg or on specific drug treatment, 3. plasma triglycerides (TG) ≥ 150 mg/dl or on specific drug treatment, 4. plasma high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) \< 40 mg/dl for men and 50 mg/dl for women or on specific drug treatment, 5. prediabetes (FBS 100 to 125 mg/dl or HbA1c 5.7 to 6.4%), 6. homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) score ≥ 2.5.
