  • Protocol summary

    The aim of this study is evaluation of effect of Curcumin on the serum levels of 12-inflammatory cytokines and highly sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP) level in the patients with non- alcoholic fatty liver. Study is designed as Randomized, double-blind trial. Examples include patients referred to Clinic of 22 Bahaman Hospital in Neyshabur city that disease has been confirmed by ultrasound examination and liver enzyme levels. 120 patients (age 15-60) are selected and will be divided into two groups. Exclusion criteria are included: enhancing drugs liver enzymes; malabsorption syndrome; steroid use; heart and lung disease; regnant and lactating women; diabetic patients; triglycerides over 150mg/dl; hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism; hepatitis B and C; Wilson's disease; celiac disease; deficiency of alpha-1 antitrypsin and alcohol consumption. Intervention with different doses and formulation of curcumin capsules are done for 60 days. Patients are randomly divided into three equal groups. Group 1: Placebo; Lactose capsules at a dose of 500 mg / day (n = 40) Group 2: Intervention with dose of 250 mg / day (n = 40) Group 3: Intervention with 500 mg / day (n = 40) At the beginning and end of the study, blood levels of the 12 inflammatory cytokines and hsCRP will be evaluated

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
Two letters were prepared and written on two sheets “A” for “curcumin” and “B” for “control.” AABB, ABAB, ABBA, BBAA, BABA, BAAB, all quad blocks were possible. Then the number was selected randomly via a table of random numbers.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
To ensuring that implementation of the random allocation sequence occurs without the knowledge of which patient will receive which treatment, the entire randomization process was concealed. For this purpose, the drugs were already put in envelopes labeled a serial number from 1 to 80. No one knew the nature of the envelopes except the coordinator of the trial.
