The Economics of Liver Fibrosis Diagnosis: Systematic Review of Non‐Invasive Test Cost‐Effectiveness

Liver International Communications, Volume 6, Issue 4, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Hepatic diseases progress silently, leading to fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Although liver biopsy remains the gold standard for fibrosis assessment, it is limited by invasiveness and sampling variability. Non‐invasive liver tests (NILTs) can mitigate biopsy‐related risks.

Central Dysmyelination in SSADH‐Deficient Humans and Mice

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 12, Issue 11, Page 2193-2205, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Objectives Succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase deficiency (SSADHD) is an inherited metabolic disorder characterized by an accumulation of γ‐aminobutyric (GABA). In addition to its synaptic role as an inhibitory neurotransmitter, GABA also plays an important role in myelination.

Propionic Acidemia: Gray Matter Disease Meets Subcortical Leukodystrophy

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 48, Issue 6, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Imaging literature on propionic acidemia (PA) is predominantly concerned with deep gray matter changes. In order to investigate the spectrum and patterns of MRI changes, 45 MRI scans of 13 patients (0.31–33.2 years) were systematically analyzed. Deep and cortical gray matter changes were associated with acute metabolic decompensation. Striatum

iEcology reveals the importance of geography and genetic makeup in the flowering phenology of invasive Carpobrotus taxa

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 4, October–December 2025.
Scientists use social media to track the flowering of an invasive coastal plant across six countries. Photographs from Instagram, iNaturalist and Google Maps showed that Carpobrotus plants flower at different times based on location, not genetics. The invasive populations flower longer than native ones in South Africa, which may help explain their ...
