Multifrequency Magnetic Resonance Elastography of the Abdominal Aortic Wall: Segmental, Positional and Flow Effects

NMR in Biomedicine, Volume 39, Issue 10, October 2026.
In vivo abdominal aortic wall–specific MRE enables reproducible wall stiffness mapping while minimizing the intraluminal signal interference, revealing segment‐ and posture‐dependent stiffness patterns that complement morphology and flow measures for clinical evaluation of abdominal aortic wall health.

Intramuscular Fat Infiltration and Knee Osteoarthritis: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Physiotherapy Research International, Volume 31, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Intramuscular fat infiltration (IMFI) is considered to be closely associated with knee osteoarthritis (KOA); however, its overall association, muscle‐specific involvement, and clinical relevance remain unclear. Objective To quantify the association between IMFI and KOA, identify affected muscle groups, and evaluate prognostic value.

A Distinct Immune Signature Characterizes Cirrhosis in Ethiopian Individuals With Chronic HBV Infection

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 64, Issue 7, Page 951-964, October 2026.
Cirrhosis patients with untreated HBV in Ethiopia exhibit a distinct immune profile marked by depletion of NK cells, B cells, and T cells, alongside an expanded CD38+HLA‐DR+ CD8 T‐cell population. ABSTRACT Background and Aims The immune cell phenotype of African patients living with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is rarely described, despite

Long‐Term Safety and Efficacy of Obeticholic Acid in Patients With Primary Biliary Cholangitis: Final Results of the POISE Long‐Term Safety Extension

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 64, Issue 8, Page 1083-1096, October 2026.
In the POISE open‐label extension, patients with primary biliary cholangitis with inadequate response or intolerance to ursodeoxycholic acid received long‐term obeticholic acid (OCA) treatment. Findings demonstrated a safety profile consistent with the known characteristics of OCA, with no unexpected safety signals, while supporting sustained efficacy ...

Meta‐Analysis: Enhanced Liver Fibrosis (ELF) Test for Identifying Significant Fibrosis, Advanced Fibrosis, and Cirrhosis in Patients With Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 64, Issue 7, Page 864-889, October 2026.
A metaanalysis of 34 studies/37 cohorts using the Siemens Healthineers ELF test for biopsy‐staged F2, F3, or F4 MASLD‐associated fibrosis validates 9.0 (≥F2), 9.8 (≥F3), and 11.3 (F4) cut‐offs, and establishes 10.5 as a high‐specificity F4 cut‐off. This potentially holds implications for guideline revisions and aiding qualification for antifibrotic ...
