The recent AIIMS study reveals that one-third of Indians, including children, are affected by non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), emphasizing the urgent need for public health interventions to manage its rise in India.

One third Indians have non-alcoholic fatty liver and it affects children as well: AIIMS study

The recent AIIMS study reveals that one-third of Indians, including children, are affected by non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), emphasizing the urgent need for public health interventions to manage its rise in India.

According to a recent study conducted by the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is on the rise in India, affecting a substantial proportion of the population. The study revealed that approximately one-third of Indians are afflicted by this condition, including a concerning number of children.
NAFLD is a medical condition characterized by the accumulation of fat in the liver, unrelated to excessive alcohol consumption. Factors contributing to its development include sedentary lifestyles, poor dietary choices, obesity, insulin resistance, and metabolic syndrome.
The study found that 38% of Indians have been diagnosed with NAFLD. This alarming statistic emphasizes the growing health concern posed by the disease. Experts have long warned that India's rapid urbanization, coupled with lifestyle changes, is likely to result in a surge of non-communicable diseases, with NAFLD being a significant contributor.
Perhaps more distressing is the impact of NAFLD on the younger generation. The AIIMS study revealed that children are also affected by this condition. The changing dietary patterns and sedentary lifestyles prevalent among Indian youth have contributed to this unfortunate trend.
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, if left untreated, can progress to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), which is characterized by inflammation and liver cell damage. If not managed effectively, NASH can lead to more severe liver complications, including cirrhosis, liver failure, and an increased risk of liver cancer.
The findings of the AIIMS study underscore the urgency of public health interventions to tackle NAFLD in India. Initiatives promoting healthy lifestyles, regular exercise, and nutritious diets are essential in preventing and managing this condition. Moreover, the study's results emphasize the need for routine health screenings to identify NAFLD in its early stages, enabling timely interventions and lifestyle modifications.

New European research has revealed that the children of obese mothers are at a greater risk of developing non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in their 20s.

Children of obese mums at higher risk of fatty liver disease: study
Influences in the womb may cause an increase in the risk
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease can be caused by obesity
NFLAD&nbsp;linked to higher chance of type 2 diabetes and heart disease
Work to be presented at International Liver Congress 2021
Risk linked to obese fathers much smaller than the risk with obese mums
Study highlights how&nbsp;obesogenic environment can be passed down

New European research has revealed that the children of obese mothers are at a greater risk of developing non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in their 20s.

If a mother is obese or overweight, the child born from such a pregnancy has a greater risk of developing fatty liver disease in their 20s, finds a new study.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Researchers from Europe have&nbsp;found evidence&nbsp;showing how&nbsp;conditions in the womb may play a major role in the risk of developing the condition.&nbsp;Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (or NAFLD) can be&nbsp;caused by obesity and later turn into more critical health problems like liver cancer. NAFLD&nbsp;has&nbsp;also&nbsp;been&nbsp;linked to a higher&nbsp;susceptibility&nbsp;to developing&nbsp;type 2 diabetes and heart disease.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The team will be presenting their findings at the International Liver Congress 2021 convened by the European Association for the Study of the Liver.&nbsp;The same study, which assessed&nbsp;liver scans from 2,961 England-born participants, also discovered&nbsp;an increased risk associated with obese fathers but the increase was much smaller than for overweight mums.&nbsp;

Dr Kushala Abeysekera from the study&nbsp;cautioned that their work is not about blaming mothers but rather highlights&nbsp;the impact of how an obesogenic environment can be passed down through generations.&nbsp;&nbsp;
