Study on the Correlation Between Fat Soluble Vitamins and Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

Excessive or insufficient levels of vitamins in the body can affect health. With the prevalence of obesity and MetS, NAFLD has become the leading cause of chronic liver disease and abnormal liver biochemical indicators in health examinations in China. The current research results on serum vitamin A, D, and E levels in NAFLD patients are controversial. Therefore, this study mainly explores the correlation between serum FSV levels and NAFLD, providing reference for nutrition and clinical management of NAFLD patients.

Establishing Reference Ranges for Fat-Soluble Vitamins in Healthy Chinese Adults

Vitamins are essential micronutrients required for maintaining normal physiological functions and metabolism in humans. Among them, fat-soluble vitamins (FSV) such as vitamins A, D, E, and K are absorbed in the intestines in the presence of fat. Both deficiencies and excesses of these vitamins can affect health. Current global studies on FSVs in healthy populations are often limited to specific types or regions, and comprehensive data on all four FSVs in the healthy Chinese population are lacking. This study aims to fill this gap by collecting and analyzing FSV levels from healthy adults across multiple regions in China, establishing a reference range for clinical evaluation and early disease intervention.
