Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to evaluate the impact of pemafibrate (PEM) on patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and hyperlipidemia.
  • A retrospective analysis of 43 patients was conducted, assessing clinical factors and liver stiffness using FibroScan before and after 0.5 years of PEM treatment.
  • Results showed that while liver stiffness (LS) and other key liver function metrics did not decrease overall, improvements were noted in patients with more significant liver stiffness at baseline, suggesting PEM may be a potential treatment option for MASLD.*

Although the association between radiation exposure and thyroid carcinogenesis is epidemiologically evident, 'true' radiation-induced cancers cannot be identified from biological evidence of radiation-associated cases. To assess the individual risk for thyroid cancer due to radiation exposure, we aimed to identify biomarkers that are specifically altered during thyroid carcinogenesis after irradiation in a time-dependent manner in an animal model. Thyroid glands were obtained from rats (n = 175) at 6-16 months after local X-ray (0.
