Eating, diet, and nutrition for the treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

Nutrition and dietary interventions are a central component in the pathophysiology, but also a cornerstone in the management of patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Summarizing our rapidly advancing understanding of how our diet influences our metabolism and focusing on specific effects on the liver, we provide a comprehensive overview of dietary concepts to counteract the increasing burden of NAFLD. Specifically, we emphasize the importance of dietary calorie restriction independently of the macronutrient composition together with adherence to a Mediterranean diet low in added fructose and processed meat that seems to exert favorable effects beyond calorie restriction. Also, we discuss intermittent fasting as a type of diet specifically tailored to decrease liver fat content and increase ketogenesis, awaiting future study results in NAFLD. Finally, personalized dietary recommendations could be powerful tools to increase the effectiveness of dietary interventions in patients with NAFLD considering the genetic background and the microbiome, among others.

Purpose: This study evaluated ElastQ, a two-dimensional shear wave elastography (2D-SWE) technique, for the non-invasive assessment of liver fibrosis risk using liver stiffness measurement (LSM). The aim was to determine its diagnostic accuracy and establish LSM cutoffs for clinical risk stratification. Methods: A prospective multicenter study was conducted, employing vibration-controlled transient elastography (VCTE) as a reference standard. The statistical analysis utilized Pearson correlations and Lin concordance correlation coefficients, diagnostic areas under the curve (AUCs), and 90%-specific rule-in and 90%-sensitive rule-out ElastQ cutoffs. Results: The study included 875 patients at risk for liver disease, of whom 816 (376 women, 46.1%; median age, 57.0 years [interquartile range, 19.0]) had successful and reliable VCTE- and ElastQ-LSMs. The median LSM was 13.0 kPa (range, 2.0 to 75.0 kPa) for VCTE and 6.6 kPa (range, 2.9 to 26.5 kPa) for ElastQ. The correlation between VCTE-LSM and ElastQ-LSM was adequate for VCTE-LSM <15 kPa (Pearson r=0.63) but lower for VCTE-LSM ≥15.0 kPa (Pearson r=0.27). VCTE-LSM indicated no fibrosis risk (<5.0 kPa) in 178 cases (21.8%), gray zone (5.0-9.9 kPa) in 347 cases (42.5%), and advanced chronic liver disease (ACLD; ≥10.0 kPa) in 291 cases (35.7%). The diagnostic AUC for ElastQ-LSM was 0.82 for fibrosis risk and 0.90 for ACLD. The clinically relevant ElastQ cutoffs for ruling out fibrosis risk and ruling in compensated ACLD (cACLD) were <5.0 kPa and ≥9.0 kPa, respectively. Conclusion: ElastQ 2D-SWE enables accurate, non-invasive assessments of liver fibrosis and cACLD risk. In clinical practice, ElastQ-LSM <5.0 kPa rules out fibrosis, while ElastQ-LSM ≥9.0 kPa rules in cACLD.
