| Hepatic steatosis, as determined by computed tomography, also improved significantly. The importance of this topic was also highlighted by the findings of a recent study presented at this year's Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections in Montreal showing a high prevalence of hepatic fibrosis and steatosis in HIV/AIDS patients without chronic viral hepatitis but with chronically elevated transaminases on antiretroviral therapy [5]. Patients who lost 5 percent or more of body weight over nine months showed improvement in insulin resistance and steatosis (fat accumulation in the liver), and those who lost at least 9 percent showed reversal of their liver damage. |
