Stage‐Dependent Prognostic Value of the Joint MASLD–NAFLD Fibrosis Score Phenotype Across the Cardiovascular–Kidney–Metabolic Syndrome Continuum: A Retrospective NHANES Cohort Analysis, 1999–2018

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The cardiovascular–kidney–metabolic (CKM) framework and metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) describe a shared clinical continuum, but the prognostic value of joint fatty liver index (FLI)–NAFLD fibrosis score (NFS) phenotypes across CKM stages is uncertain.

Diagnostic Accuracy of Serum‐Based Fibrosis Scores for Clinically Significant Liver Fibrosis in an East Asian Cohort

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Serum‐based fibrosis scores are widely used for noninvasive risk stratification in chronic liver disease; however, direct comparisons across liver disease etiologies remain limited, particularly in Asian populations with a high prevalence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.

Predicting The Risk Of Diabetes With BMI And Waist Circumference In Older Taiwanese

open access: yes, 2012
[[abstract]]Background: Diabetes is an issue in public health and clinical medicine. Many studies have been conducted to pinpoint the predictors of diabetes in older adults, but the predictive ability of BMI and waist circumference has not been carefully

Associations of the Baseline Level and Change in Triglyceride Glucose‐Body Roundness Index With Cardiovascular Diseases: Two Large Prospective Cohorts in Europe and Asia

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to investigate the association of baseline and changes of TyG‐BRI with incident CVD based on the UK Biobank and China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS). A total of 418,510 and 7923 individuals from the UK Biobank and CHARLS were included in Analysis 1 (baseline TyG‐BRI with CVD risk).

Differences in the Evaluation and Diagnosis of Obstructive Sleep Apnea by Sex: A Systematic Review

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This systematic review of 33 studies found that females with obstructive sleep apnea generally presented at an older age and with higher BMI, whereas males generally had greater neck circumference and apnea‐hypopnea index. These findings highlight clinically relevant sex‐based differences in OSA evaluation and support more individualized approaches to ...

Circulating Omega‐3 Fatty Acids and Cardiometabolic Outcomes: A Systematic Review of Publications From UK Biobank

open access: yesLipids, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Studies have shown that omega‐3 fatty acids may protect against cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and related metabolic conditions. UK Biobank is a large cohort study that includes data on plasma omega‐3 fatty acids at study entry and health outcomes during the follow‐up period.

Proteoforms in Disease: Biomedical Applications of Top‐Down Proteomics

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The proteome is a dynamic landscape of proteoforms arising from genetic mutations, alternative splicing, and post‐translational modifications (PTMs), which collectively drive biological function and disease phenotypes. Mass spectrometry (MS)‐based proteomics has emerged as an essential technique for elucidating this molecular complexity ...
