Screening for advanced liver fibrosis due to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease alongside retina scanning in people with type 2 diabetes: a cross-sectional study.

Background: International guidelines suggest screening for advanced fibrosis due to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease in people with type 2 diabetes, but how to implement these guidelines in clinical care remains unclear. We hypothesise that examination with VCTE could be implemented simultaneously with retina scanning with a high acceptance rate in people with type 2 diabetes.

Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we offered VCTE to people with type 2 diabetes referred to routine retina scanning in a large retina scanning facility in Stockholm, Sweden.

Prevalence and risk factors for impaired awareness of hypoglycaemia: A registry-based study of 10,202 adults with type 1 diabetes in Norway.

Aims: The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of impaired awareness of hypoglycaemia (IAH) and examine risk factors for IAH in adults with type 1 diabetes.

Methods: We conducted a population-based registry study of 10,202 adults (≥18 years) with type 1 diabetes using data from the Norwegian Diabetes Register for Adults. The registry used the 1-item Gold scale, measuring hypoglycaemia symptom awareness.

Socioeconomic factors associated with the presence of and outcomes in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.

Background And Aims: The association between socioeconomic factors and disease severity is not well studied in people living with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). We thus examined if socioeconomic factors influence the presence of, or risk for future, major adverse liver outcomes (MALOs) in people living with MASLD.

Methods: We conducted a register-based cohort study that included all individuals with a MASLD diagnosis between 1987 and 2020 in Sweden.

Pre-pregnancy obesity among immigrant and non-immigrant women in Norway: Prevalence, trends, and subgroup variations.

Introduction: This study assessed prevalence and time trends of pre-pregnancy obesity in immigrant and non-immigrant women in Norway and explored the impact of immigrants' length of residence on pre-pregnancy obesity prevalence.

Material And Methods: Observational data from the Medical Birth Registry of Norway and Statistics Norway for the years 2016-2021 were analyzed. Immigrants were categorized by their country of birth and further grouped into seven super regions defined by the Global Burden of Disease study.
