Although metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), previously termed nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, has become the most common chronic liver disorder, its complex pathophysiology has not been fully elucidated up to date. A correlation between elevated sympathetic activation and MASLD has been highlighted in recent preclinical and clinical studies. Furthermore, increased sympathetic activity has been associated with the main mechanisms involved in MASLD, such as lipid accumulation in the liver, insulin resistance, and metabolic dysregulation, while it has been also correlated with the progression of MASLD, leading to liver fibrosis.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterized by overactivation of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) that leads to increased risk of cardiovascular disease. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of a Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) programme on SNS activity in CKD patients. Participants with CKD stages III-IV were randomized to the 8 week MBSR programme or Health Enhancement Program (HEP; a structurally parallel, active control group).

Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are common in clinical practice, especially among patients with multiple comorbidities and polypharmacy. The ADRs associated with medications may be minor or life-threatening. Many available ADR assessment scales and pharmacovigilance programmes have streamlined the early diagnosis and management of ADRs.
