ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of liraglutide in the treatment of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease(NAFLD).Methods Randomized controlled trials(RCTs)that evaluated the efficacy of liraglutide for NAFLD treatment were searched in multiple databases,including Pubmed,EMBASE,the Cochrane library,CNKI,Wanfang database and VIP.Literature identification and data extraction were based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria.RevMan 5.3 software was used for Meta-analysis.Results A total of 7 RCTs with 500 patients of NAFLD were included.Improved liver histology,or improved the level of alanine aminotransferase[WMD=-25.32,95％CI(-37.22,-13.41),P<0.01] and aspartate aminotransferase[WMD=-24.56,95％CI(-35.10,-14.03),P<0.01] were seen in 12-48 weeks liraglutide treatment.However,liraglutide could not decreased the level of serum cholesterol[WMD=-14.38,95％CI(-48.95,-20.20),P=0.42] and triglyceride[WMD=-15.55,95％CI(-36.20,-5.10),P=0.14].Conclusion liraglutide has the therapeutic effect of NAFLD.
