Effect of CoQ10 on the Outcome of MAFLD Patients

So far there has been no universal treatment for MAFLD since it has a complex etiology that involves ethnic, genetic, metabolic and environmental factors. However, therapeutic life changes including: diet, weight loss, and physical activity remain the cornerstone of treatment and is recommended by both American and European associations. Inflammatory biomarkers, such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and adipokines play key roles in the pathogenesis of MAFLD, hence, the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects of coenzyme Q10 especially at high doses that have not been tested are hypothesized to have a beneficial role in improving the systemic inflammation and biochemical variables. This study is conducted to test this hypothesis
