Associations between periodontal inflammation and OHIP‐14 scores: A cross‐sectional study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background More evidence is needed to assess the association between periodontitis and Oral Health‐Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) quantitatively. We hypothesized that periodontal inflammation is correlated with a worsening in quality of life and aimed to test this in this study.

Association between weight-adjusted waist index (WWI) and multimorbidity: Evidence from NHANES and prospective validation in CHARLS

Experimental Gerontology
Background: The burden of chronic diseases is known to be significantly increased by obesity, yet conventional measures like waist circumference (WC) and body mass index (BMI) do not accurately capture central adiposity.

Association of periodontitis with incidence of metabolic syndrome in Korea: A retrospective cohort study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Although periodontitis has been linked to systemic conditions such as metabolic syndrome, longitudinal evidence remains limited. This nationwide population‐based cohort study aimed to investigate whether periodontal status is associated with the incidence of metabolic syndrome in Korea.

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. Since the last iteration of this position paper, there have been substantial advances in our understanding of the disease.

The Effects of Biologic Agents on Carotid Intima‐Media Thickness and Hepatic Steatosis in Patients With Moderate‐To‐Severe Psoriasis: A Prospective Observational Cohort Study

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
In this prospective observational cohort study, 34 patients with moderate‐to‐severe psoriasis received biologic therapy (anti‐TNF‐α, anti‐IL‐12/23, or anti‐IL‐17) for 6 months. Carotid intima–media thickness decreased significantly in the overall cohort (p < 0.01), with the greatest reductions in the anti‐IL‐17 and anti‐IL‐12/23 groups.

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 ...

Estimated Body Fat Percentage and Triglyceride‐Glucose Index for Identifying MASLD in Lean Asian Adults: A Cross‐Sectional Analysis

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is increasingly prevalent among lean Asian populations, yet effective strategies for identifying high‐risk individuals remain limited. We investigated the associations of body fat percentage (BF%) and the triglyceride‐glucose (TyG) index with lean MASLD and evaluated their ...

Cardiometabolic Biomarkers for Disease Severity Prediction in Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The impacts of cardiometabolic risk factors (CMRFs) and the biomarkers on disease severity in metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) remain elusive. Accordingly, a multicenter study by recruiting MASLD patients from a nationwide registry database was conducted with a total of 2882 MASLD patients (54.1% males, mean age

Association between sarcopenia and weight-adjusted waist index in male patients with type 2 diabetes

BMC Endocrine Disorders
Background The Weight-adjusted-waist index (WWI) has emerged as a predictive factor for a range of metabolic disorders. To date, the predictive value of the WWI in relation to sarcopenia in individuals with diabetics has not been extensively explored ...
