Hepatic and serum metabolite levels show weak correlation, with liver metabolites more strongly associated with steatosis and inflammation than serum metabolites in severe obesity.
Nucleos(t)ide analogues therapy significantly reduces risks of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma in specific chronic hepatitis B subgroups outside 2025 EASL criteria, especially in HBeAg-positive patients with high replicative or impending phase transition phenotypes.
Hepatic glutamine depletion is linked with increased CD4+ T cell inflammation and worsened liver damage in MASLD patients and mouse models.
DD01 achieved a 76% rate of at least 30% liver fat reduction at 12 weeks in adults with MASLD or MASH, significantly surpassing the 12% in the placebo group.
Primary liver cancer incidence and mortality increased by over 55% globally from 2000 to 2023, reversing earlier declines around 2020.
Liver cancer surveillance lacks randomized trial evidence, with most positive results being false positives in low-prevalence populations, limiting support beyond hepatology.
VGLL4 promotes MAFLD progression by enhancing PDK4 transcription, with hepatocyte-specific overexpression inducing steatosis and knockout protecting mice from metabolic dysfunction.
Missingness-aware machine learning models using routine lab data achieve significantly higher discrimination of cirrhosis among hepatitis patients, with AUC up to 0.841.
Multidisciplinary heart-liver co-management improves detection and treatment of MASLD, addressing a critical gap in cardiometabolic care with potential to reduce mortality.
Pre-pregnancy parental obesity significantly increases the risk of adult offspring MASLD, with a 3.73-fold higher odds when both parents are overweight or obese.
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) significantly increases colorectal cancer (CRC) risk, especially with greater disease severity and metabolic burden, according to expert consensus.
Cardiolipin deficiency in mitochondria impairs electron transport chain function and causes steatohepatitis in mice and humans.
Abbreviated MRI protocols and blood-based biomarkers show promise for improving hepatocellular carcinoma surveillance accuracy and patient adherence.
