Introduction: This study investigates the applicability of the new metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) nomenclature to the real-world TARGET-NASH US adult cohort.

Methods: The new MASLD/metabolic steatohepatitis nomenclature was applied to patients enrolled with pragmatic diagnoses of nonalcoholic fatty liver and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), and NASH cirrhosis and concordance were determined between the definitions.

Results: Approximately 99% of TARGET-NASH participants met the new MASLD diagnostic criteria. Approximately 1,484/1,541 (96.3%, kappa 0.974) nonalcoholic fatty liver patients (metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver), 2,195/2,201 (99.7%, kappa 0.998) NASH patients (metabolic steatohepatitis), and 1,999/2,003 (99.8%, kappa 0.999) NASH cirrhosis patients met the new criteria.

Discussion: The new MASLD nomenclature is highly concordant with the previous TARGET-NASH pragmatic definitions.

We report a case of a 49-year-old female with a history of HIV infection for 12 years. The patient had excellent compliance with antiretroviral medications, raltegravir 400 mg twice daily and truvada once daily for HIV. Over the years, she maintained an undetectable viral load with a CD4+ count >200 cells/μL.

Objectives: To identify cuproptosis- and ferroptosis-related genes involved in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and to determine the diagnostic value of hub genes.

Methods: The gene expression dataset GSE89632 was retrieved from the Gene Expression Omnibus database to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) group and the healthy group using the 'limma' package in R software and weighted gene co-expression network analysis. Gene ontology, kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes pathway, and single-sample gene set enrichment analyses were performed to identify functional enrichment of DEGs.

Background: Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a severe form of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) characterized by damage and inflammation of hepatocytes. Some medicinal plants have shown antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects on liver cells. We aimed to investigate the hepatoprotective effect of Heptex® capsules containing 200 mg of Dukung Anak (a powdered extract from aerial parts of Phyllanthus niruri) and 100 mg of Milk Thistle (a powdered extract from fruits of Silybum marianum) in patients with an apparent risk factor for NASH.

Introduction: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) acts as the primary contributor to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, fibrosis, cirrhosis, and potentially hepatocellular carcinoma. The flowers of Chrysanthemum indicum, a traditional edible medicinal herb, have been widely used in China for more than 2000 years. However, the function of C.

Background: Obesity in midlife, defined as body mass index (BMI) of 30 kg/m or higher in those between 40-60 years, is related to higher Alzheimer's disease (AD) later in life. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, as a complication of obesity is associated with impaired cognitive function. We investigated the relationship between hepatic fat quantification by use of MRI-derived Positron Density Fat Fraction (PDFF) and brain cortical thickness in cognitively normal midlife individuals.
