Background: Prevalence of hepatic steatosis following pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy (PPPD) is high. This study intended to reveal the prevalence and patterns of de novo hepatic steatosis following PPPD.
Methods: We investigated postoperative de novo hepatic steatosis following PPPD (n = 101) with a control group of bile duct resection (BDR) (n = 54).
Results: At postoperative 1 year, hepatic steatosis occurred in 21 of 82 patients (25.6%) of PPPD group and in 2 of 47 patients (4.3%) of BDR group (p = 0.001). Thereafter, at 2 to 5 years, a high prevalence of hepatic steatosis persisted in the PPPD group, but no further occurrence developed in BDR group. Once steatosis developed, it persisted until the end of the study period or patient death. Five-year cumulative incidence of hepatic steatosis was 26.7% in the PPPD group and 3.7% in BDR group (p < 0.001). Univariate analyses showed that patient sex, age, body mass index, blood lipid profile, recurrence of tumor, and diabetes did not have significant influence on the development of hepatic steatosis following PPPD.
Conclusions: De novo hepatic steatosis may develop in a not negligible proportion of patients undergone PPPD. Multicenter studies with a high number of patients are needed to elucidate its pathogenesis and to find effective treatment for pancreaticoduodenectomy-associated hepatic steatosis.

Background: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) with onset in youth may be more consequential for adverse outcomes than that detected later in adulthood. Transaminitis in the general population is a marker of the prevalence of MASLD. There are no previous community-based studies in Indian youth assessing the prevalence of transaminitis.

Background: Fatty liver disease or steatotic liver disease (SLD) affects 25% of the global population and has been associated with heart disease. However, there is a lack of postmortem studies in the context of sudden cardiac death (SCD).
Objectives: To investigate the relationship between SLD and SCD.

Objective: In this study, it was aimed to screen fatty liver in individuals with metabolic disorders, and to investigate the use of some anthropometric calculations and body composition indices in demonstrating fatty liver disease.
Methods: The cross-sectional study included 224 participants with metabolic diseases. Anthropometric measurements of the participants were measured.

Background: In the past few decades, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) became widely used antidepressants worldwide. Therefore, the adverse reactions of patients after SSRI administration became a public and clinical concern. In this study, we conducted a pharmacovigilance study using the Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database of the US Food and Drug Administration.

Background: Vitamin D (VD) deficiency and insulin resistance (IR) increase the risk of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), but few studies have explored the potential mechanisms by which IR mediates the association between VD and the pathogenesis of NAFLD at the genetic level using publicly available databases.
Methods: This is a cross-sectional study, and we utilized the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) dataset, as well as data from GSE200765 obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) website. A total of 723 individuals who had completed liver ultrasound examination and the detection of VD levels were included in the final analysis.
