Title: PECULIARITIES OF THE CLINICAL COURSE OF NON-ALCOHOLIC STEATOHEPATITIS AGAINST THE BACKGROUND OF THE CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE OF THE I-III STAGE WITH SECONDARY ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION.
Abstract: The article addresses the theoretical generalization of the clinical study of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis peculiarities in comorbidity with obesity and chronic kidney disease of the &#1030;-&#1030;&#1030;&#1030; stage, characterized by higher frequency and intensity of clinical and biochemical syndromes, the manifestation of which is likely to increase the occurrence of secondary arterial hypertension (portal hypertension syndromes, cholestasis, mesenchymal inflammation). Comorbid course of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis with chronic kidney disease is characterized by higher degree of liver steatosis compared to the patients with only non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (p<0.05), and a higher diagnostic threshold of the hepatorenal index values, which correlates with the Steato-test index (p<0.001) with strong interdependence.
