OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) affects 1 in 3 Americans and can exist in 2 histological subtypes: simple hepatic steatosis (SHS) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a clinically aggressive variant. Fatigue is the most common complaint in patients with NAFLD but the etiology of fatigue is unknown. Thus, the goal of this study was to objectively evaluate fatigue via maximal cardiopulmonary exercise testing and identify determinants of exercise intolerance in NAFLD. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: In total, 14 subjects with histologically confirmed NAFLD were prospectively enrolled. Subjects with cirrhosis or those with known history of heart failure (systolic or diastolic) were excluded. Fatigue was quantified via the Duke Activity Status Index (DASI) questionnaire. A symptom-limited treadmill cardiopulmonary exercise test was performed in all subjects to measure exercise time (ET) and peak oxygen consumption (peak VO2). Doppler-echocardiography was performed to measure systolic and diastolic function. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: The DASI score and ET was significantly reduced in patients with NASH (n=10) when compared to those with SHS [40.2 (IQR=24.2–50.7) vs. 58.2 (IQR=50.7–58.2), p=0.04]; [9.1 (IQR=6.4–12.2) vs. 13.1 (IQR=12.5–13.1) min, p=0.02, respectively] reflecting moderate fatigue and impaired overall exercise capacity. The ET was directly linked to peak VO2 (R=+0.79, p
