Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)-related fibrosis is heritable, but it is unclear how family history may be used to identify first-degree relatives with advanced fibrosis. We aimed to develop and validate a simple risk score to identify first-degree relatives of probands who have undergone assessment of liver fibrosis who are at higher risk of NAFLD… Continue reading Development and Validation of the Nonalcoholic #Fatty Liver Disease Familial Risk Score to Detect Advanced #Fibrosis: A Prospective, Multicenter Study

Transgenerational transmission of reproductive and metabolic dysfunction in the male progeny of polycystic ovary syndrome
Highlights•PCOS-sons are often obese and have dyslipidemia•miRNAs altered in the serum of PCOS-sons and women with PCOS targets PCOS-risk genes•Small RNAs present in sperm imply transgenerational transmission of phenotype in mice•Shared miRNAs between mouse sperm of F1–F3 generations and human serum are revealedSummaryThe transgenerational maternal effects of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in female progeny are being… Continue reading Transgenerational transmission of reproductive and metabolic dysfunction in the male progeny of polycystic ovary syndrome
Metabolic Syndrome-Related Hyperuricemia is Associated with a Poorer Prognosis in Patients with Colorectal Cancer: A Multicenter Retrospective Study
Hyperuricemia and metabolic syndrome (MetS) have been shown to correlate with prognosis in patients with malignant tumors. The present study evaluated the relationship between preoperative hyperuricemia and MetS in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients and analyzed the effect of this combination on prognosis within 5 years. Patients and Methods: The study enrolled patients who had undergone… Continue reading Metabolic Syndrome-Related Hyperuricemia is Associated with a Poorer Prognosis in Patients with Colorectal Cancer: A Multicenter Retrospective Study
Changes in #metabolic syndrome status are associated with altered risk of #pancreatic cancer: A nationwide cohort study
Background & AimsMetabolic syndrome (MetS) is reversible; however, the effect of changes in MetS status on pancreatic cancer risk is unknown. We aimed to investigate the effects of changes and persistence in MetS status on pancreatic cancer risk. MethodsThis nationwide cohort study included 8,203,492 adults without cancer who underwent two consecutive biennial health screenings provided… Continue reading Changes in #metabolic syndrome status are associated with altered risk of #pancreatic cancer: A nationwide cohort study
Metabolic associated fatty #liver disease is the risk factor for chronic #kidney disease
Background & AimsTo clarify the relationship between metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). MethodsThe participants were divided into four groups by the presence or absence of fatty liver disease (FLD) and metabolic dysfunction (MD). MAFLD was defined as having both FLD and MD, whereas CKD was defined as estimated glomerular… Continue reading Metabolic associated fatty #liver disease is the risk factor for chronic #kidney disease
#Metabolic Syndrome, and Not #Obesity, Is Associated with Chronic #Kidney Disease
Obese (OB) patients are at increased risk of chronic kidney disease, but it is still unclear whether this can be attributed to obesity per se or to the associated metabolic derangements. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relative impact of obesity and metabolic syndrome (MS) on kidney disease. Methods: This is a… Continue reading #Metabolic Syndrome, and Not #Obesity, Is Associated with Chronic #Kidney Disease
#Metabolic syndrome and #gastric cancer risk: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Gastric cancer (GC) is the fifth diagnosed cancer worldwide and the third leading cause of death for cancer. Recent reports suggest that metabolic syndrome (MetS) has a role in etiology, progression or prognosis on GC. The aim of this study is to systematically review the evidence on the association between MetS and GC risk and… Continue reading #Metabolic syndrome and #gastric cancer risk: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Common and specific aspects of #anxiety and #depression and the #metabolic syndrome
The associations of anxiety and depression with metabolic syndrome (MetS) are not consistent across studies. Anxiety and depression are highly correlated and traditional methods don't take the structure of this correlation into account. Our aim is to disentangle the relationship of these emotional conditions with MetS, using bifactor models, modelling both general and specific aspects… Continue reading Common and specific aspects of #anxiety and #depression and the #metabolic syndrome
An integrative study of five biological #clocks in somatic and mental #health
Biological clocks have been developed at different molecular levels and were found to be more advanced in the presence of somatic illness and mental disorders. However, it is unclear whether different biological clocks reflect similar aging processes and determinants. In ~3000 subjects, we examined whether five biological clocks (telomere length, epigenetic, transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic… Continue reading An integrative study of five biological #clocks in somatic and mental #health
