RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is the leading cause of liver pathology. The mainstay of management is weight loss. Our aim was to evaluate responses to nutritional counseling in long-term patients with this condition. METHODS: A prospective cohort study with consecutive inclusion of 105 subjects with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease who received individualized low-calories diet counseling (1400 to 1600 kcal/day according to gender) every three months for 24 months. Weight loss of 5% or more was considered as a therapeutic response. RESULTS: Out of 105 patients, 45 (42.9%) did not return for a second evaluation. Mean age was 55 ± 9 years, 81.6% were women and mean body mass index was 31.9 (23.8-44.9) kg/m2. Follow-up time was 6.5 (3.2-26.9) months and median appointment number was 3 (2-11). Metabolic syndrome and hypercholesterolemia were more common in women. The number of subjects who lost more than 5% weight was: 5/20 (25%) at 6-months; 3/15 (33%) at 12 months; 3/18 (17%) at 18 months and 4/13 (31%) at the end of follow up. The median body weight loss at 6, 12, 18 and 24 months decreased significantly. CONCLUSIONS: Adherence to nutritional counseling is poor in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Only a very small proportion of patients reached the targeted body loss of weight on long term.


RESUMO OBJETIVOS: A doença hepática gordurosa não alcoólica éa principal causa de patologia hepática. Essencial para seu manejo éa perda de peso. Nosso objetivo foi avaliar as respostas a aconselhamento nutricional em pacientes crônicos com esta condição. METODOS: Estudo prospectivo de coorte com inclusão consecutiva de 105 indivíduos com doenca hepática gordurosa não alcoólica que receberam dieta individualizada de baixa caloria (1400-1600kcal/dia, de acordo com o sexo) e aconselhamento a cada 3 meses, durante 24 meses. A perda de peso de 5% ou mais foi considerada como resposta terapêutica adequada. RESULTADOS: Dos 105 pacientes, 45 (42,9%) não voltaram para uma segunda avaliação. A média de idade foi de 55 ± 9 anos, 81,6% eram mulheres e o índice de massa corporal foi de 31,9 (23,8-44,9) kg/m2. O tempo de seguimento foi de 6,5 (3,2-26,9) meses e número médio de entrevistas foi de 3 (2-11). A síndrome metabólica e a hipercolesterolemia foram mais comuns em mulheres. O número de indivíduos que perderam mais de 5% em peso foi: 5/20 (25%) em 6 meses; 3/15 (33%) aos 12 meses; 3/18 (17%) e aos 18 meses 4/13 (31%) no final do seguimento. A perda de peso corporal média aos 6, 12, 18 e 24 meses diminuiu significativamente. CONCLUSÕES: A adesão ao aconselhamento nutricional épobre em pacientes com doenca hepática gordurosa não alcoólica. Apenas uma pequena proporcão de pacientes que atingiu a perda de peso corporal programada a longo prazo.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Recent evidence suggests that non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is associated with diet. Our aim was to investigate the dietary patterns of a Brazilian population with this condition and compare them with the recommended diet. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 96 non-alcoholic fatty liver disease patients before any dietetic counseling. All patients underwent abdominal ultrasound, biochemical tests, dietary evaluations, and anthropometric evaluations. Their food intake was assessed by a semi-quantitative food-frequency questionnaire and 24-hour food recall. RESULTS: The median patient age was 53 years, and 77% of the individuals were women. Most (67.7%) participants were obese, and a large waist circumference was observed in 80.2% subjects. Almost 70% of the participants had metabolic syndrome, and 62.3% presented evidence of either insulin resistance or overt diabetes. Most patients (51.5, 58.5, and 61.7%, respectively) exceeded the recommendations for energy intake, as well as total and saturated fat. All patients consumed less than the amount of recommended monounsaturated fatty acids, and 52.1 and 76.6% of them consumed less polyunsaturated fatty acids and fiber, respectively, than recommended. In most patients, the calcium, sodium, potassium, pyridoxine, and vitamin C intake did not meet the recommendations, and in 10.5-15.5% of individuals, the tolerable upper limit intake for sodium was exceeded. The patients presented a significantly high intake of meats, fats, sugars, legumes (beans), and vegetables and a low consumption of cereals, fruits, and dairy products compared with the recommendations. CONCLUSIONS: Although patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease exhibited high energy and lipid consumption, most of them had inadequate intake of some micronutrients. The possible role of nutrient-deficient intake in the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease warrants investigation.
