The non alcoholic fatty liver disease
(NAFLD)
• After an initial phase characterized by liver fat deposition, it may
evolve to steatohepatitis, cyrrhosis and hepatocarcinoma, without
abuse of alcohol.
• In the world the incidence is 25-30% in adults but it is rapidly
growing also in children.
• Possible causes: obesity, metabolic syndrome, type II diabetes,
nutritional imbalance, drug abuse and toxic exposure.
The sine qua non of fatty liver disease:
hepatic triglyceride accumulation due to imbalance
between TG acquisition and removal

Effects of low-dose simvastatin and
ezetimibe compared to high-dose
simvastatin on endothelial function
 39 patients with type 2 diabetes or IGT and stable CAD
 Randomized to Simva 80 mg or Eze/Simva 10/10 mg
for 6 weeks
Key results
Same increases in FMD and decreases in CRP in both
groups
Conclusion
Cholesterol lowering is more important than pleiotropic
effects of statins for improvement in endothelial function
and inflammatory markers.

Take home messages
 Optimal LDL-C lowering and therapeutical targets can
be achieved by inhibiting cholesterol absorption and
production with ezetimibe/simvastatin
 The SHARP trial establish the clinical benefits of
eze/simv consistently with meta-analysis of statin trials
 Beyond its LDL-lowering effects, other potential
benefits of ezetimibe have been recently described:




improvement of post-prandial hyperlipidemia
improvement of liver steatosis
positive effect on endothelial dysfunction
antiatherosclerotic benefits
