Exercise Training Is Associated With Treatment Response in Liver Fat Content by Magnetic Resonance Imaging Independent of Clinically Significant Body Weight Loss in Patients With Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Introduction: Exercise training is crucial in the management of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD); however, whether it can achieve clinically meaningful improvement in liver fat is unclear. We investigated the association between exercise training and the achievement of validated thresholds of MRI-measured treatment response.

Methods: Randomized controlled trials in adults with NAFLD were identified through March 2022.

Physical Activity and Risk of Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Background & Aims: Physical activity offers promise to protect against multiple non-hepatic primary cancers. We performed a systematic review to quantify the association between physical activity and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk.

Methods: We searched the Cochrane Library, Embase, Medline and trial registries through December 2020 for studies that measured physical activity levels in adults at risk for HCC.

Improving Emotional Intelligence through Personality Development: The Effect of the Smart Phone Application based Dharma Life Program on Emotional Intelligence.

Emotional intelligence is established to predict success in leadership effectiveness in various contexts and has been linked to personality factors. This paper introduces Dharma Life Program, a novel approach to improving emotional intelligence by targeting maladaptive personality traits and triggering neuroplasticity through the use of a smart-phone application and mentoring. The program uses neuroplasticity to enable users to create a more adaptive application of their maladaptive traits, thus improving their emotional intelligence.
