The effects of Mediterranean Diet (MedDiet) on clinical, biochemical and inflammatory profile in NAFLD patients with simple steatosis. Potential associations of single nucleotide polymorphisms to diet composition and patients' profile were also investigated.

Description: A decrease in liver fat
Measure: Regulation of hepatic steatosis Time: Change from Baseline to 6 monthsDescription: Increase in MedDietScore
Measure: Adherence to MedDiet Time: Change from Baseline to 6 monthsDescription: Decrease in visfatin levels
Measure: Regulation of visfatin Time: Change from Baseline to 6 monthsDescription: Decrease in oxLDL levels
Measure: Regulation of oxLDL Time: Change from Baseline to 6 monthsDescription: Decrease in visfatin in carriers of the risk allele
