Sponsor's own description

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common and harmful chronic liver disease. NAFLD accounts for 49.3% of the total number of chronic liver disease patients in China. It is important to effectively prevent and control NAFLD and its related diseases. Previous studies show the level of serum uric acid is significantly elevated in patients with NAFLD. Xanthine oxidase is a key enzyme in uric acid metabolism. It is a new therapeutic target for NAFLD. This study is aimed to further confirm that hyperuricemia is a new risk factor for NAFLD through a large sample prospective study. Furthermore, this study explore whether Xanthine oxidase (XO), a key enzyme in uric acid metabolism, plays an important role in regulating NAFLD.
