Efficacy of dietary and physical activity intervention in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: a systematic review.
Susan KenneallyJoanna H SierJennifer Bernadette MoorePublished in: BMJ open gastroenterology (2017)
We conclude this amount of weight loss is achievable in the trial setting but is challenging in the clinical environment. High-intensity, multidisciplinary intervention in specialist clinics is likely to be required in order to manage NAFLD by lifestyle modification alone. This systematic review protocol was registered prospectively at PROSPERO as CRD42016032764.
