Impact of Live Streaming Exercise on Liver Health in MASLD Pregnant Women

Evaluation of the Effect of Live Streaming Exercise on the Improvement of Hepatic Steatosis and Fibrosis in Pregnant Women With MASLD and Its Study Based on the Liver-gut Axis Mechanism.

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Metabolic Dysfunction-associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD) is a clinical and pathological syndrome characterized primarily by excessive intracellular fat accumulation in the liver, excluding alcohol-related and other specific causes. Recent research has identified an association between MASLD and an increased risk of pregnancy-related complications and adverse pregnancy outcomes, including gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, preterm birth, and large-for-gestational-age infants. MASLD in pregnant women poses multiple risks to maternal and infant health. Regular physical exercise during pregnancy has been shown to effectively reduce the incidence of pregnancy complications and adverse outcomes, while also alleviating hepatic steatosis and fibrosis. This study is a randomized controlled trial aimed at exploring the feasibility and effectiveness of online exercise interventions for pregnant women with MASLD, as well as conducting a cost-effectiveness analysis and investigating the underlying physiological mechanisms based on the liver-gut axis. The findings are intended to provide scientific evidence and practical recommendations for managing pregnancy health and intervening in MASLD during pregnancy.
