Application value of weight-adjusted waist circumference index and cardiometabolic index in hypertensive patients with albuminuria: results from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2005-2020. [PDF]

Ren Fail
The Weight-adjusted Waist Index (WWI) and Cardiometabolic Index (CMI) are novel metrics developed to evaluate visceral fat distribution and metabolic health. This study aimed to explore the associations between these indices and albuminuria in hypertensive patients.We conducted a cross-sectional analysis using data from the National Health and ...

Metabolic dysfunction‐associated fatty liver disease and excessive alcohol consumption are both independent risk factors for mortality

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Visualisation of the study desgin, main results and key findings. Abstract Background and Aims MAFLD often cooccurs with excessive alcohol consumption, while its prognostic value in this group remains unclear. We aimed to study the mortality risk of MAFLD in relation to excessive alcohol consumption and its potential interactions.

Nicotinamide riboside and pterostilbene reduces markers of hepatic inflammation in NAFLD: A double‐blind, placebo‐controlled clinical trial

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
NRPT 1X reduces ALT and ceramide 14:0 in 65% of subjects as compared to only 28% in the placebo group. Abstract Background and Aims The prevalence of NAFLD is increasing globally and on a path to becoming the most frequent cause of chronic liver disease. Strategies for the prevention and treatment of NAFLD are urgently needed.
