Summary
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical efficacy and safety of liraglutide in obesity combined with metabolism-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD).
INTERVENTION PROGRAM: All subjects underwent dietary control and exercise therapy, and controlled smoking and alcohol consumption. During the 3 months of the trial, men were instructed to follow a diet of 1,500 to 1,800 kcal per day and women followed a diet of 1,200 to 1,500 kcal per day. All three diets included 40 to 55 percent carbohydrates, 15 to 20 percent protein and 20 to 30 percent fat. During the 3-month trial period, subjects performed at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week with an energy expenditure of 1500 kcal/week or more. Other medications containing the same ingredients as orlistat and liraglutide were prohibited during the trial period. After randomization, the control group was treated with lifestyle intervention + orlistat until the end of follow-up. Trial group 1 was treated with lifestyle intervention + liraglutide. Trial group 2 was treated with lifestyle intervention + liraglutide + orlistat for a total treatment and follow-up period of 3 months.
