Conclusion Probiotic/synbiotic use  improves aminotransaminase levels and reduces proinflammatory marker high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and liver fibrosis in NAFLD patients
Background Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease ( NAFLD ) is the most prevalent chronic liver disease worldwide .
The pathogenesis of NAFLD is complex and multifactorial .
There is growing evidence that altered gut microbiota plays a key role in NAFLD progression .
Probiotics/synbiotics , by modifying gut microbiota , may be a promising treatment choice for NAFLD management .
Aim The aim of this study was to study the effect of probiotics/synbiotics on various laboratory and radiographic parameters in NAFLD management .
Fighting Fatty Liver Diseases with Nutritional Interventions, Probiotics, Symbiotics, and Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT).
Pediatric obesity is rising worldwide leading the worrying phenomenon of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease ( NAFLD ) to shift into one of the most frequent causes of chronic liver illness in childhood . Occurrence of NAFLD depends on several factors such as the geographical area and the diagnostic modalities used ; overall it ranges between 3 % and 10 % of pediatric population , increasing up to 70 % in patients with metabolic comorbidities ( Manco M , Bottazzo G , DeVito R et al , J Am Coll Nutr 27:667 - 676 , 2008).Recent findings have related the intestinal microbiota to a plethora of pathological conditions , including type 2 diabetes ( T2D ) , obesity , and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis ( NASH ) . One of the emerging areas of the study is the link between liver diseases and gut microbiome , which has added new information to the underst and ing of the so-called gut-liver axis . In order to address the role of gut microbiome in NAFLD onset and progression , it is necessary to " decipher " operational codes for microbiome investigation within the context of advanced laboratory medicine to capture microbiome features and , hence , to address the function of the intestinal microbiome within the gut microbiota-liver axis . Results of these investigations have allowed the beginning of implementing the usage of probiotics and symbiotics in the medical approach of  obesity and NAFLD in adults and children . Several r and omized clinical trials ( RCTs ) have been already published on  fecal microbiota transplantation  ( FMT ) , T2D , NASH , and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).This review proposes to describe the current state of knowledge on the ways fatty liver diseases can be addressed with nutritional interventions , probiotics , symbiotics , and FMT
