Advanced NAFLD: measuring mcroRNA in a blood sample
The authors carried out microRNA sequencing in a group of 183 patients with NAFLD.
Read MoreMAFLD might cause structural damage to brain cells
The present study aims to investigate changes associated with MAFLD-induced alteration of thalamic metabolism in vivo.
Read MoreNAFLD and MAFLD as emerging causes of hepatocellular carcinoma
Hepatocellular carcinoma is the most common type of liver cancer, increasingly arising in patients with NAFLD or MAFLD.
Read MoreLiver transplant recipients: NASH is frequent
To investigate incidence and predictors of NAFLD and NASH by employing noninvasive testing in liver transplant recipients, the authors prospectively recruited 40 consecutive adult patients who received liver transplant at the McGill University Health Centre between 2015-2018.
Read MoreNon-obese MAFLD is associated with colorectal adenoma
According to this study, MAFLD, particularly non-obese MAFLD, is the most important factor associated with the presence of colorectal adenoma rather than NAFLD.
Read MoreNASH limits anti-tumour surveillance in immunotherapy-treated HCC
According to this article by D. Pfister et al., the response to immunotherapy is better in patients with virus-induced HCC than in patients with non-viral HCC (that is, NASH).
Read MoreNASH: bariatric surgery and major adverse liver and cardiovascular outcomes
In this retrospective cohort study of 1158 patients with biopsy-proven fibrotic NASH without cirrhosis, bariatric surgery was significantly associated with a lower risk of major adverse liver outcomes.
Read MorePathogenesis of NASH and dynamic changes in liver macrophages
In this article, the authors describe that, with high-fat, high-sucrose-diet feeding, mature TIM4pos Kupffer cells decrease in number, while Tim4neg macrophages, which are monocyte-derived, accumulate.
Read MoreNAFLD: progressive liver fibrosis
The progression of NASH was initially defined according to a two-hit model involving an initial development of steatosis, followed by a process of lipid peroxidation and inflammation.
Read MoreNAFLD risk may be associated to dementia and cognitive decline in older age
The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between NAFLD risk and a dementia diagnosis in a large population-based sample aged >65 years.
