TACE combined with SBRT enhanced survival rates in patients with large hepatocellular carcinoma tumors, offering promising treatment insights.

Findings underscore the potential limitations of using systemic inflammatory indices like the Dietary Inflammatory Index and Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index to assess organ-specific conditions.

Researchers said longitudinal studies are critical to refine and optimize the management of metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).

In the M-ACCEL trial, HU6-induced weight loss was exclusively attributed to fat loss, with no statistically significant loss in lean muscle.

There was no association observed between lower income and increased fibrosis among New York City residents with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH).

The Global Liver Institute urges worldwide integration of liver health into diabetes and obesity care as steatotic liver disease surges.

Findings offer a potential basis for sex-specific dietary guidelines for metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), as this relationship was significant for men but not women.

Weekly 2.4 mg semaglutide was linked to improved liver histology results but did not significantly reduce body pain compared with placebo.

Naim Alkhouri, MD, spoke to the potential for glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists to transform the treatment landscape for patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and severe fibrosis.

Downstaging and bridging strategies are changing how hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is treated.

A recent review highlights the gaps in clinical guidelines and treatment approaches for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and looks ahead to the future promise of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists for liver conditions.

Data from patients across 3 different randomized controlled trials showed improvements in both adiponectin and PRO-C3, primary end points in the trials.

Data from a meta-analysis of 8 observational studies accounting for more than 26 million people across the globe were evaluated in a new review.

Weight loss is a key effect of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), but these drugs may also provide liver health benefits independent of this mechanism.

Resmetirom offers a targeted approach to metabolic dysfunction–associated steatohepatitis (MASH) for use alongside lifestyle modifications.

Inclusion of female and Hispanic/Latino patients has increased over time, but most trials of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) still take place in high-income countries and have majority-White patient populations.

The invasive nature of lipid biopsies has lead researchers to dedicate more efforts to unveiling noninvasive diagnostic methods for metabolic dysfunction–associated steatohepatitis (MASH).

Rising rates of metabolic dysfunction–associated steatohepatitis indicate a need for public health interventions.

Emerging evidence suggests that fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) could play a future part in the treatment of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH).

As a growing number of young adults with primary liver cancer (PLC) related to metabolic dysfunction–associated steatohepatitis (MASH) age, developing coherent strategies to combat the metabolic disease epidemic is critical.

The investigators believe their decades-spanning analysis underscores the need to address access barriers to anti-obesity therapeutics.

Peptidomics offered new diagnostic insights into the underlying processes of metabolic dyfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).

Advances in therapy are improving outcomes for patients, but the incidence and mortality rates for hepatocellular carcinoma are increasing in the US.

Tislelizumab's inclusion in the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) as a category 1 recommendation marks an advancement in the treatment landscape for HCC.
