Liver ultrasound comparison for liver and MASH: my hepatologist ordered serial ultrasounds to track NAFLD regression.

Liver enzyme update related to liver and MASH: I had mildly elevated ALT/AST at baseline (likely NAFLD). After 6 months on GLP-1 therapy:

MarkerBaselineCurrentNormal Range
ALT55227-56 U/L
AST482410-40 U/L
GGT65289-48 U/L
ALP957244-147 U/L

FibroScan also improved — liver stiffness from 8.5 kPa to 5.2 kPa. The evidence for GLP-1 agonists in NAFLD/NASH is very promising.

Fatty liver on an incidental scan two years ago and nobody followed it up.

Liver imaging follow-up for liver and MASH: FibroScan at baseline showed CAP score 336 dB/m (moderate steatosis) and stiffness 8.8 kPa (possible fibrosis). Diagnosed with NAFLD.

After 10 months: CAP dropped to 229 dB/m (minimal steatosis) and stiffness normalized to 5.7 kPa. Hepatologist says the liver is essentially healing itself as the metabolic stress resolves.

GLP-1 agonists may become first-line NASH therapy. The Phase 3 data on semaglutide for NASH is very promising.

Coming at PharmacoVig_BOS’s question from a different direction. Worth answering the question that was asked rather than the one behind it. The narrow version usually has an answer; the broad version usually does not, and answering the broad one is how a thread stops being useful.

One thing that is still open after carl_compliance’s answer:

How long did you give it before you decided it was working?

Reporting back.

Reporting back with a partial result, because a partial result is still better than silence. Two of the three things suggested helped; I cannot separate them and I am not going to pretend otherwise.
