European Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) position paper on screening, diagnosis and investigation of paediatric metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common reason for elevated liver enzymes in children in Europe, affecting more than 5% of all children.

A Cross‐Sectional Survey Study Assessing the Quality of Life and Sleep in Spanish Psoriasis Patients

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Psoriasis impacts quality of life (QOL) and sleep (QOS), yet dermatology assessments often do not evaluate sleep. The Short‐form health survey (SF‐36) and Pittsburg sleep quality index (PSQI) further investigated patients’ QOL and QOS. Particularly women, unemployed patients, and those that use sleep medications had worse QOS and QOL.

Therapeutic Challenges in Managing Coexisting Hidradenitis Suppurativa and Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Clinical Case Study

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder affecting intertriginous areas. Long‐standing HS can undergo malignant transformation into squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), particularly in the perineal and gluteal regions. We report a 54‐year‐old man with severe, treatment‐refractory HS complicated by an aggressive verrucous

Efficacy of CPAP Therapy on Liver Steatosis and Insulin Resistance in Fatty Liver Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea: A 4‐Year Follow‐Up Cohort Study

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are comorbid conditions that synergistically increase cardiovascular risk through systemic inflammation and insulin resistance. While continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the standard treatment for OSA, its efficacy in improving hepatic ...

Risk Analysis Index Versus mFI‐5 for Predicting Outcomes After Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This retrospective database study of 2129 adults undergoing uvulopalatopharyngoplasty compared the risk analysis index (RAI) with the modified 5‐item frailty index (mFI‐5) for predicting 30‐day postoperative outcomes and found that frailty was associated with worse morbidity, prolonged hospitalization, non‐home discharge, and mortality.
