Results

In patients with fatty liver, the HbA1c, AST, ALT, and gGTP levels significantly decreased after pioglitazone treatment than before (P<0.01). The AST and ALT levels, but not the gGTP level, and the FIB-4 index significantly decreased after pioglitazone addition in the AFLD group, similar to that in the NAFLD group (P<0.05 and P<0.01, respectively). Similar effects were observed following low-dose pioglitazone treatment (below 7.5 mg/day) (P<0.05) in T2D patients with AFLD and NAFLD.

Baseline Characteristics

In this study, 100 patients with T2D who were newly prescribed pioglitazone and received it for at least 3 months by physicians at Tokyo Teishin Hospital in Tokyo, Japan between October 2015 and September 2020 were selected. Patients with hepatitis virus, autoimmune hepatitis, and severe renal failure (i.e., an estimated glomerular filtration rate <30 mL/min/1.73 m2) were excluded.

Participant flow

The diagnosis of fatty liver was evaluated by radiologists using ultrasonography or computed tomography (CT). Alcohol consumption habits (alcohol consumption >30 g/day for men and >20 g/day for women) were investigated to distinguish between NAFLD and AFLD. According to this information, we divided the subjects into three categories; patients without fatty liver, patients with NAFLD and patients with AFLD.

Adverse events

Two patients who received the standard pioglitazone dose (1 with NAFLD and 1 without fatty liver) experienced edema of the lower extremities. No severe hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia was observed. Additionally, no other adverse effects related to the skin, gastrointestinal tract, urinary tract, bone metabolism, or fractures were observed during the study.

Outcome measures

Clinical data including age, sex, weight, the serum levels of AST, ALT, gGTP, and HbA1c, platelet count, pioglitazone dosage, and history of concomitant use of antidiabetic drugs other than pioglitazone were collected from the patient medical records. Changes in clinical parameters between pre-treatment and 3 months after pioglitazone administration were evaluated in patients with or without fatty liver and in those with AFLD or NAFLD. Changes in HbA1c levels were also compared between patients with and without fatty liver. To evaluate the efficacy of pioglitazone based on the dosage, the pioglitazone dose was divided into low dose and standard dose.
The degree of liver fibrosis was determined using the FIB-4 index, which was validated for Japanese patients with NAFLD.
