Article Synopsis
- Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has been redefined as metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), which is linked to an increased risk of acute pancreatitis (AP).
- In a study involving over 2,000 patients, 39% had MAFLD, which raised the odds of developing moderate-to-severe AP, although it didn't significantly impact in-hospital mortality.
- The severity of AP was influenced by the specific metabolic risk factors present, with a dose-dependent relationship observed—more criteria correlated with increased severity and outcomes for the disease.
Background: Before the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination fixed orthodontic devices, such as brackets and wires, cause challenges not only for the orthodontist but also for the radiologist. Essentially, the MRI-safe scan of the fixed orthodontic tools requires a proper guideline in clinical practice. Therefore, this systematic review aimed to examine all aspects of MRI-safe scan, including artifact, thermal, and debonding effects, to identify any existing gaps in knowledge in this regard and develop an evidence-based protocol.

Since we have very limited access to primary human neural samples, derivation of proliferative neural progenitor cells (NPCs) from cells harvested by minimally invasive sampling is a key issue. Here we describe a "shortcut" method to establish proliferative NPC cultures directly from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) via interrupted reprogramming.

Multiple studies have compared patient-derived and healthy control NPCs derived from iPSCs in order to investigate cellular phenotypes of this disease, although the establishment, stabilization, and directed differentiation of iPSC lines are rather expensive and time-demanding. However, interrupted reprogramming by omitting the stabilization of iPSCs may allow for the generation of a plastic stage of the cells and thus provide a shortcut to derive NPSCs directly from tissue samples.
