Association Between Polymorphisms rs11003125 and rs7096206 of the MBL2 Gene and the Stages of Hepatitis B Progression in Burkina Faso: A Comparative Cross‐Sectional Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains a major global health burden, with disease progression influenced by host genetic and immune factors, including variants in the mannose‐binding lectin 2 (MBL2) gene. This study aimed to evaluate the association between MBL2 polymorphisms and clinical outcomes of HBV infection ...

Enhancing Heart Failure Detection in the General Population Using the Steatosis‐Associated Fibrosis Estimator

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 49, Issue 4, April 2026.
The current study identified a nearly linear and robust relationship between SAFE and prevalent HF, suggesting that SAFE may serve as a useful indicator for enhancing HF detection in the general population ABSTRACT Purpose Non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease and its fibrotic sequelae have been implicated in the development of cardiovascular complications.

Minocycline attenuates cirrhotic cardiomyopathy and portal hypertension in a rat model: Possible involvement of nitric oxide pathway [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences, 2016
Objective(s): An increase in nitric oxide (NO) production has been reported in cirrhotic cardiomyopathy and, portal hypertension. Since minocycline has been shown to inhibit NO overproduction, we aimed to examine its role in a rat model of CCl4-induced ...

Bacterial Infections Change Natural History of Cirrhosis Irrespective of Liver Disease Severity [PDF]

, 2017
OBJECTIVES: We assessed the prognostic significance of infections in relation to current prognostic scores and explored if infection could be considered per se a distinct clinical stage in the natural history of cirrhosis.

Interpreting peripheral oxygen saturation variability in critical illness: A directional framework adjusted for hypoxia severity

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 4, Page 2334-2347, 1 April 2026.
Abstract Peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2${S_{{\mathrm{p}}{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$) exhibits a complex pattern of fluctuations during hypoxia, which can be quantified using entropy measures. SpO2${S_{{\mathrm{p}}{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$ entropy analysis provides insights into dynamic physiological regulation by non‐invasively reflecting the body's capacity to ...

Cirrhotic cardiomyopathy and liver transplantation [PDF]

Liver Transplantation, 2000
Myocardial contractility in cirrhosis is impaired, particularly under stressful situations, in a phenomenon termed cirrhotic cardiomyopathy. Impairment of the cardiac β-adrenergic receptor and its signaling function appears to be involved in the pathogenesis of this disorder.
