Post‐to Pretreatment Ratio of Serum CXCL10 Level Predicts Short‐Term Liver Function Outcome in Compensated and Decompensated Cirrhotic Patients Due to Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection After Direct‐Acting Antiviral Therapy

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
The post‐to pretreatment serum CXCL10 ratio was independently associated with short‐term liver function outcome following HCV eradication in cirrhotic patients. ABSTRACT Aim The prognostic value of serum C‐X‐C motif chemokine ligand 10 (CXCL10) levels for liver function was investigated in hepatitis C virus (HCV)–infected patients with compensated or ...

Multiple Periapical Lesions Influence the Expression of TLR4/NF‐κB Pathway Components and the Development of Hepatic Injuries in Healthy and Chronic Alcohol‐Consuming Rats

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate the impact of multiple apical periodontitis (AP) on the expression of TLR4/NF‐κB pathway components, proinflammatory cytokine levels, and development of hepatic injuries in rats with and without chronic alcohol consumption. Methodology Thirty‐two rats were assigned to four groups (n = 8): Control, AP, Alcohol, and Alcohol+AP ...

Toll Like Receptor 4: A Potential Link Between Obesity and Metabolic Diseases

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Epidemiological evidence shows that obesity increases the risk of developing metabolic diseases. Nevertheless, the mechanisms behind this connection remain underappreciated. The substantial impact of these disorders on global health has led to extensive research efforts aimed at identifying the pathophysiological links between them.

Histiocytes: Multifaceted Regulators of Health and Disease

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The mononuclear phagocyte system encompasses macrophages, dendritic cells (DCs), and monocytes. Tissue‐resident macrophages and dendritic cells arise during embryogenesis and are replenished either through self‐renewal or by monocytes during inflammation.

Intestinal epithelial injury and inflammation after physical work in temperate and hot environments in older men with hypertension or type 2 diabetes

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract We tested whether older adults with well‐controlled type 2 diabetes or hypertension, compared with age‐matched adults without chronic disease, exhibit greater intestinal damage, microbial translocation and inflammation during exertional heat stress.

The impact of a Western diet and binge drinking on metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in male and female mice

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a major public health concern, largely driven by the high‐fat, high‐sugar and low‐fibre Western diet. The Western diet is often accompanied by binge drinking, or the rapid consumption of alcohol in a short time leading to a blood alcohol concentration of ≥0.08%.

Variants in AKR1D1 and Infant Mortality: Should Bile Acid Screening be a Routine Part of Newborn Screening?

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 4, Page 971-977, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Biallelic pathogenic variants in AKR1D1 cause Δ4‐3‐oxosteroid 5β‐reductase deficiency, disrupt bile acid synthesis, and result in Congenital Bile Acid Synthesis defect type 2 (CBAS2). CBAS2 presents in infancy with cholestasis, coagulopathy, and failure to thrive.

A Review of Vagus Nerve Stimulation for Disease: Comprehensive Theory and Evidence for Mechanisms of Action

Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 2, April 2026.
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) effects span central and peripheral organ systems through diverse mechanistic pathways. This comprehensive review provides a unified synthesis of these mechanisms across neurological, cardiovascular, immunological, metabolic, and gastrointestinal domains, filling a critical gap and serving as a foundational resource for ...

Protective Mechanism of Auricularia auricula Polysaccharides Against Acute Alcoholic Liver Injury Is Related to Different Consumption Doses

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
The study investigated the protective mechanisms of low‐, medium‐, and high‐dose Auricularia auricula polysaccharide (AAP) against acute alcoholic liver injury (AALI) by correlating hepatic biochemical indices with intestinal flora. ABSTRACT This study investigated the dose‐dependent protective effects of Auricularia auricula polysaccharides (AAP ...

Liver Cirrhosis and In‐Hospital Outcomes in Patients With Sickle Cell Crises

eJHaem, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a hematologic disorder characterized by chronic hemolysis, vaso‐occlusion, and end‐organ dysfunction. Patients with SCD may experience acute episodes known as sickle cell crises, which are sudden, severe complications typically involving pain or organ‐specific manifestations resulting from vaso ...
