Published: July 2023

Hepatic lipidosis (ie, fatty liver) occurs primarily during the first weeks of lactation in dairy cows because of excessive lipolysis overwhelming the concomitant capacity for beta-oxidation and hepatic export of triglycerides. Besides economic losses due to reduced lactational and reproductive performance, close associations with concomitantly occurring infectious and metabolic health disorders, in particular ketosis, exist. Hepatic lipidosis is not only a consequence from the postpartal negative energy balance but also acts as a disease component for further health disorders.

Synergistic effect of canine FGF-21 combined with insulin in the treatment of canine diabetes.

Biopharmaceutical Lab, College of Life Science, Northeast Agricultural University, Harbin, 150030, China.

Previous studies have shown that FGF-21 can ameliorate hyperglycemia and improve the level of oxidative stress in vivo in diabetic mice. The hypoglycemic effect is safe and lasting, but it takes a longer time to exert its effect. Insulin treatment of canine diabetes takes effect quickly; however, its action time is short, and it is prone to cause hypoglycemia.

Introduction: The liver is essential for both the body's removal of waste materials and the metabolism of nutrients, it is critical for sustaining general health. However, a number of factors, including viral infections, immune system malfunctions, cancer, alcohol intake, and drug toxicity, are contributing to the rising prevalence of liver problems. Alternative approaches to liver disease treatment are being investigated due to the potential limitations of conventional medical treatments.

Unlabelled: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the major causes of chronic liver disease worldwide. There are conflicting reports on the association of serum ferritin levels and its utility in discriminating various stages of liver fibrosis in patients with NAFLD. This study is done to address the conflicts by analysing the National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey 2017-2020 (NHANES 2017-2020) data.

Objective: The study aimed to observe the quantity of platelet aggregation in the hepatic tissue of patients with metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and its relationship with hepatic inflammation, fibrosis, and fatty degeneration.

Methods: Clinical data of 55 patients with MAFLD and 25 patients without MAFLD, admitted to the Shenzhen Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine from December 2020 to May 2022, were retrospectively analyzed. Liver tissue obtained by liver biopsy underwent routine pathological examination.
