Protocol summary

Study aim
Determining the effect of eight weeks of intense interval training (HIIT), resistance training and consumption of artichoke extract on the level of sirtuin 1 and liver enzymes aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
Design
Clinical trial with control group, with parallel groups, randomized, on 60 patients. Randomization by the method of equal blocks (15 blocks of 4) in which a number of intervention people and a number of comparison people are included in each block.
Settings and conduct
By referring to Hamedan Ba'ath Hospital, eligible people were identified and placed in the intervention groups using equal blocks randomization (15 blocks of 4). Then, people will go to the sports club for training intervention and perform exercises and supplements for 8 weeks. And before and 24 hours after exercise interventions, blood samples are taken from people to be measured in the laboratory.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Entry conditions: suffering from non-alcoholic fatty liver disease Conditions of non-entry: inability to practice
Intervention groups
Exercise and supplement group: In the exercise group, the samples are subjected to high-intensity and resistance intermittent exercises, and the supplement group consumes artichoke extract. The control group is not subjected to any intervention.
Main outcome variables
Non-alcoholic fatty liver, sirtuin 1, liver enzymes aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT)

Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention group: Intense interval training was performed for 8 weeks and four sessions per week and each session lasted for 60 minutes (15 minutes of warm-up + 30 minutes of interval training + 15 minutes of cooling) with an intensity of 80-85% of the maximum heart rate. They performed high-intensity resistance training of 7 movements 3 times a week. In the first two weeks, they did one maximum repetition and 6 repetitions with 90% intensity, in the third to fifth week with 95% maximum repetition and 4 repetitions, and the last three weeks with 100% ability and two repetitions. The amount of rest between sets was 1 minute and between stations was 2 to 3 minutes. For each subject in each station, which included barbell chest press, front shoulder with barbell, front underarm lat, front arm with cable hand, back arm with cable, front thigh with machine and back thigh with machine, the amount of weight It was found that it is usually able to lift less than 10 times. Artichoke extract is consumed in the following way. The parts of this plant were dried in the shade and crushed with the help of a grinder and turned into powder. The chopped leaves of the dried artichoke plant (fluffy silver leaves) were given to the study subjects in the form of packages in the required number, and they were asked to take them for 45 days, in two occasions (at night before going to bed; that is, two hours after eating dinner and the second time in the morning fasting one hour before breakfast) brew a tablespoon of plant leaves with a glass of boiling water for 20 minutes on indirect heat and at a temperature of 80 degrees Celsius.
