Late sequelae of chronic alcoholic intoxication were studied in the 3rd generation of animals. The peculiarities of trace element and macronutrient balance and the offspring blood serum tissue-specific cytotoxic activity against brain, testes, thymus, are discussed in their relation to the nature of chronic alcoholic intoxication of the 1st generation on paternal, maternal and both sides. Characteristic features are shown for the indices under study in the offspring, including the chronic alcoholic intoxication in males of the 1st generation. These peculiarities suggest the possibility of a differentiated therapeutical approach to correction of alcoholic embryo-/fetopathy.

Purpose Of Review: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common chronic liver disease, characterized by hepatic steatosis with at least one cardiometabolic risk factor. Patients with MASLD are at increased risk for the occurrence of cardiovascular events. Within this review article, we aimed to provide an update on the pathophysiology of MASLD, its interplay with cardiovascular disease, and current treatment strategies.

Glutamine availability may be reduced in chronic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)-induced by obesity. Herein, the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and lipid metabolism effects of chronic oral glutamine supplementation in its free and dipeptide form were assessed in ob/ob mice. Adult male C57BL/6J ob/ob mice were supplemented with L-alanyl-L-glutamine (DIP) or free L-glutamine (GLN) in the drinking water for 40 days, whilst C57BL/6J Wild-type lean (WT) and control ob/ob mice (CTRL) received fresh water only.

Background: Chronic and excessive alcohol consumption is the leading cause of death due to chronic liver disease. Alcohol-related liver disease (ALD) encompasses a broad spectrum of clinical and pathological features, ranging from asymptomatic and reversible pathologies to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a highly prevalent and deadly liver cancer. Indeed, alcohol consumption is one of the main worldwide etiologies of HCC.

Importance: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease and is projected to become the leading indication for liver transplant (LT) in the US. Understanding its clinical burden can help to identify opportunities for prevention and treatment.
Objective: To project the burden of MASLD in US adults from 2020 to 2050.
Introduction: Chronic liver disease, a progressive deterioration of liver function, has become a significant health problem in the United States. According to the National Vital Statistics Report 2017 from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately 4.5 million adults have been diagnosed with chronic liver disease and cirrhosis (end-stage liver disease), which is 1.
