Heart injury is one of the extrahepatic manifestations of chronic hepatitis C (CHC). The paper gives Russian and foreign authors' data on a relationship between CHC and myocardial injury. It discusses different pathogenetic components (the direct effect of the virus, immunological components), through which hepatitis C virus can induce myocarditis and cardiomyopathies in patients with CHC.

Background/aims: There are no hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) surveillance recommendations for non-viral chronic liver diseases (CLD), such as metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). We explored the Steatosis-Associated Fibrosis Estimator (SAFE) score to predict HCC in MASLD and other CLD etiologies.
Methods: Patients with various CLDs were included from medical centers in Taiwan.

Liver transplantation (LT) is a cost-effective therapy for advanced liver disease. Although LT significantly improves long-term survival, it requires strict control of immunosuppressants and their potential complications. Several available immunosuppressive drugs include glucocorticoids, calcineurin inhibitors, mycophenolate, mTOR inhibitors, and anti-CD25 antibodies.

Introduction: The gut microbiota has a complex relationship with the human host and is key to maintaining health. Disruption of the healthy diverse gut microbial milieu plays an important role in the pathogenesis of several diseases including infection (CDI), inflammatory bowel disease, irritable bowel syndrome, alcohol-related liver disease and metabolic-dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is highly effective in treating CDI, though its utility in other diseases is still being explored.

Chronic hepatitis B (HBV) and C (HCV) are major health challenges in Thailand, with Phetchabun province, a known HCV-endemic area, being a key target for elimination efforts. This study aimed to assess HBV prevalence and identify associated risk factors in this province. Data was collected from three cross-sectional population studies: (1) adults in 2015 (n = 1,667, age 30-64 years), (2) young adults in 2017 (n = 1,453, age 18-30 years), both from high HCV-endemic districts, and (3) a province-wide study in 2018 (n = 4,769, age 35-64 years).

Background: Phlebotomy has been used as a non-pharmacological treatment for different types of diseases, regarding the philosophy of humors in traditional medicines, such as Persian Medicine. However, according to the narrow-approved indications for phlebotomy in Western Medicine, we aimed to systematically summarize high-level of evidence on safety and efficacy of phlebotomy in treatment of human diseases.
Methods: In this umbrella review, to identify meta-analysis studies of clinical trials on phlebotomy, four electronic databases, including PubMed, web of science, Scopus, and Cochran library were searched until Jun 18, 2022 with relevant keywords for 'phlebotomy' and 'meta-analysis' according to PRISMA guidelines and PICO questions.
