Unveiling the Burden of Steatotic Liver Disease: Mortality Risks by Subtype and Fibrosis Stage in a Nationwide Cohort

open access: yesLiver International, Volume 46, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims We investigated the associations between SLD, fibrosis stage, and all‐cause and cause‐specific mortality, with a focus on SLD subtypes. Methods We analysed 486 156 UK Biobank participants. SLD cases were identified using fatty liver index ≥ 60. Causes of death were confirmed via death registries.

Pathophysiological consequences and benefits of HFE mutations: 20 years of research

open access: yesHaematologica, 2017
Mutations in the HFE (hemochromatosis) gene cause hereditary hemochromatosis, an iron overload disorder that is hallmarked by excessive accumulation of iron in parenchymal organs. The HFE mutation p.Cys282Tyr is pathologically most relevant and occurs in

HFE-Associated Hereditary Haemochromatosis

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2000
Hereditary hemochromatosis is a common inherited disorder of the iron metabolism. Screening studies indicate that it has a prevalence of one in 200 to 400, depending on the population studied, and a carrier rate of about one in seven to one in 10.

A time course of hepcidin response to iron challenge in patients with HFE and TFR2 hemochromatosis

open access: yesHaematologica, 2011
Background Inadequate hepcidin production leads to iron overload in nearly all types of hemochromatosis. We explored the acute response of hepcidin to iron challenge in 25 patients with HFE-hemochromatosis, in two with TFR2-hemochromatosis and in 13 ...

Adaptations to iron deficiency: cardiac functional responsiveness to norepinephrine, arterial remodeling, and the effect of beta-blockade on cardiac hypertrophy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
BackgroundIron deficiency (ID) results in ventricular hypertrophy, believed to involve sympathetic stimulation. We hypothesized that with ID 1) intravenous norepinephrine would alter heart rate (HR) and contractility, 2) abdominal aorta would be larger ...

Disseminated cryptococcosis and hemochromatosis: clues to diagnosis

open access: yesAutopsy and Case Reports, 2021
Hepatic cirrhosis, diabetes mellitus and iron overload can each independently predispose to cryptococcosis. Hereditary hemochromatosis leads to all three of these predispositions.
