Skeletal muscle and subcutaneous fat quantity as prognostic indicators in cardiac amyloidosis
Aims Disease‐related changes in body composition are associated with worse outcomes in chronic heart failure. In cardiac amyloidosis (CA), the prognostic value of direct body composition measures is understudied. Methods and results We identified 160 consecutive patients with CA (transthyretin [ATTR] or light chain [AL]) diagnosed between 2001 and 2021

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to use a multi‐omics (i.e., gene expression quantification, metabolomics, and fatty acid [FA] profiling) approach to separate and authenticate beef from three different dietary groups. In this 2‐year study, Red Angus steers (n = 54) were randomly allocated to one of three treatments: (1) complex biodiverse ...

Systematic review: the role of frailty in advanced chronic liver disease
The role of frailty indices in advanced chronic liver disease. Summary Background Frailty is a known predictor of outcome and mortality in patients undergoing liver transplantation. However, most patients remain unsuitable transplant candidates. It is not yet known if the assessment of frailty in non‐transplant candidates can aid prognostication.
