Patients with non-alcoholic steriodal hepatitis (NASH) or non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (Nafld) receive comprehensive care at Ohio State’s NASH clinic. Here, hepatoligists coordinate care with a team of experts focusing on medicine, exercise, diet, and in some cases, surgery. As Na Li, MD, PhD, a gastroenterologist and non-transplant hepatologist at Ohio State explains, the emphasis is often on weight loss—just a 7% decrease in body weight can lead to health improvements. Many patients also receive simultaneous treatment for high blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes.
