About this study

Official title: Assessment of Metabolic Associated Fatty Liver Disease (MAFLD) in Chinese Population Using ATI / SWE / SWD: a Prospective Multicenter Study

Attenuation imaging (ATI) technology independently developed by Canon medical is a non-invasive examination technology for quantitative detection and analysis of liver steatosis. The technique is simple, rapid and quantitative diagnosis, and is suitable for screening and popularization of early liver steatosis in MAFLD. As noninvasive and effective detection measures of liver inflammation and liver fibrosis, SWD and SWE are more and more widely used in the quantitative diagnosis of liver inflammation and fibrosis. Therefore, ATI combined with SWD / SWE detection can quantitatively diagnose different pathological stages (steatosis, necrotizing inflammation and liver fibrosis) in the development of MAFLD, so as to provide an important basis for treatment.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Correlation between ATI / SWD / SWE parameters and the degree of steatosis, inflammation and fibrosis in MAFLD patients

    Measured: from October 2020 to june 2022

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Metabolic-dysfunction-associated Fatty Liver Disease (MAFLD), run by Chinese PLA General Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Nov 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Correlation between ATI / SWD / SWE parameters and the degree of steatosis, inflammation and fibrosis in MAFLD patients (time frame: from October 2020 to june 2022). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Nov 2022.
