Background And Aims: Controversy remains whether the mortality risk in people with fatty liver disease (FLD) including metabolic-(dysfunction) associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and metabolic-(dysfunction) associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is higher than observed in those without FLD. We aimed to determine the mortality rate and mortality rate ratio (MRR) for these FLDs.
Methods: The study population was a randomly selected cohort of community-dwelling adults in regional Victoria, Australia between 2001 and 2003 with sufficient data evaluable for Fatty Liver Index and determination on alcohol consumption.
Background And Aim: The validity of non-invasive tests (NITs) of liver fibrosis for the prediction of liver and mortality outcomes in an Australian cohort is unknown. We aimed to verify the utility of available NITs to predict overall and cause-specific mortality and major adverse liver outcome (MALO).
Methods: This was an analysis from the Crossroads 1 clinic sub-study of a randomly sampled adult cohort from regional Australia between 2001 and 2003.
Background And Aims: The association between fatty liver disease (FLD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in an Australian context has yet to be defined. The primary aim of this study was to investigate the association between FLD and 3-point major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE).
Methods: This was a longitudinal follow-up study of a randomly sampled adult cohort from regional Australia between 2001 and 2003.
Article Synopsis
- - The study aims to explore the socio-demographic factors influencing the use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) for chronic pain in rural Australia, as previous understanding has been limited.
- - Data was analyzed from a population health survey conducted through face-to-face interviews, focusing on participants aged 16 and older in a regional area of northern Victoria.
- - Findings revealed that women and individuals with bachelor's degrees were significantly more likely to use CAM for chronic pain, while those over 50 were less likely to use manipulation therapies compared to younger individuals.
Objective: To: (1) assess whether rural clinical placements influence change in intention to practice rurally for nursing and allied health students, (2) to assess whether residential origin (metropolitan or rural) or university location (metropolitan or non-metropolitan) influence this change, and (3) assess residential origin of health professionals practicing rurally after graduation.
Design: Cross-sectional survey (2014-2022) conducted in Northern/Northeastern Victoria and Grampians region by nursing and allied health students completing rural clinical placements. Survey explored student placement satisfaction, intention to practice rurally and demographic information, with a follow-up two years' post-placement.
