A global survey on the use of the international classification of diseases codes for metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease.

Background: With the implementation of the 11th edition of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) and the publication of the metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) nomenclature in 2020, it is important to establish consensus for the coding of MAFLD in ICD-11. This will inform subsequent revisions of ICD-11.

Methods: Using the Qualtrics XM and WJX platforms, questionnaires were sent online to MAFLD-ICD-11 coding collaborators, authors of papers, and relevant association members.

pH-Responsive DNA Motif: From Rational Design to Analytical Applications.

pH-responsive DNA motifs have attracted substantial attention attributed to their high designability and versatility of DNA chemistry. Such DNA motifs typically exploit DNA secondary structures that exhibit pH response properties because of the presence of specific protonation sites. In this review, we briefly summarized second structure-based pH-responsive DNA motifs, including triplex DNA, i-motif, and A-C mismatch base pair-based DNA devices.

Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy combined with single-anastomosis duodenal-jejunal bypass in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus of patients with body mass index higher than 27.5 kg/m2 but lower than 32.5 kg/m2.

This study aimed to introduce this surgical technique laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy combined with single-anastomosis duodenal-jejunal bypass (LDJB-LSG), and to confirm this new surgical technique was safe in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) of patients with body mass index (BMI) higher than 27.5 kg/m but lower than 32.5 kg/m.
