Background: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is characterized by the presence of at least one cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factor, underscoring its potential to elevate CVD risk in affected individuals. However, evidence linking MASLD to subclinical coronary atherosclerosis remains scarce, and further investigations are necessary to elucidate the independent role of varying MASLD severities as a CVD risk factor.
Methods: This study analyzed 7,507 participants aged ≥ 40 who underwent comprehensive health evaluations at the Shanghai Health and Medical Center.

It is observed that the global burden of diseases had shifted from infectious diseases to Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs), with an accumulative trend in developing countries. NCDs share key modifiable behavioral risk factors like unhealthy diet and lack of physical activity that are typically established during adolescence or young adulthood and will set the stage for NCDs development later in life. Therefore, this paper aimed to explore factors contributing to the co-occurrence of risk factors for NCDs among persons aged 30 years and above in selected urban areas of Namibia.

However, healthcare providers in community hospitals may need to perform ANRIs, while having limited experience and resources. Understanding practice differences between hospitals of different levels of service (LoS) and rural/urban location may inform quality improvement.

Microplastics (MPs) in aquatic environments has been observed globally. However, the ecological risks of MP pollution in riverhead prior to highly urbanized region remain poorly understood. This study investigated MP pollution related to microbiome in sediments, and ecological risks of MPs in riverhead prior to urbanized area over 291 km of Minjiang River (MJR) in Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP).
