Official title

Evaluating the Efficacy of CPAP Therapy for the Treatment of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD)

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

We are doing this research study to evaluate whether continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), a treatment for sleep apnea, will also help treat fatty liver disease. Sleep apnea is a disease where a person has interruptions in their breathing while they are sleep. This can lead to low oxygen levels in the blood. CPAP is a mask that delivers oxygen at high pressure to the lungs to prevent a decrease in blood oxygen levels. CPAP is a known treatment for sleep apnea.
