Background/Objectives: Chronic liver disease (CLD) is highly relevant in clinical practice due to its increasing incidence and associated mortality. We aimed exhaustively characterize the multimorbidity of patients with CLD. Methods: This a retrospective observational study aged 18 years older diagnosis CLD 2015 EpiChron Cohort (Spain). analyzed prevalence comorbidities according sex age, conducted logistic regression analysis as independent variable each dependent variables obtain odds ratios (OR) adjusted for age sex, performed an exploratory factor identify presence patterns. Results: A total 6836 adults had (mean 61.6 years; 62.5% women), average 13 co-existing chronic conditions. Arterial hypertension, lipid metabolism disorders, diabetes, obesity, musculoskeletal diseases were most frequent diseases. From list 110 conditions analyzed, 75 systematically CLD, including (OR, 95% confidence interval) pancreatitis (41.2, 33.5–50.6) inherited metabolic disorders (14.9, 11.8–18.8). Three patterns identified both men women, cardiovascular, metabolic-geriatric, mental-substance use, some differences by sex. Conclusions: Multimorbidity norm Our results reveal that comprehensive integral approach based on person-centered care, which should take into account their entire spectrum multimorbidity, necessary during care this type patient practice.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterized by persistent inflammation and often associated with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver (MASLD). IBD patients are at risk of developing MASLD due to shared factors such as gut dysbiosis systemic inflammation. The new nomenclature emphasizes the link between steatosis cardiometabolic comorbidities. However, prevalence in remains poorly explored. main aim this cross-sectional study assess ultrasound (US) clinical features IBDs.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a leading cause of chronic and linked to metabolic syndrome components such as insulin resistance obesity. In 2020, the term "metabolic dysfunction-associated (MAFLD)" was introduced, incorporating risk factors including patients with other conditions. However, concerns about "fatty" led proposal steatotic (MASLD)", which refined diagnostic criteria but excluded significant alcohol consumption or comorbidities. Although MASLD improves NAFLD in some respects, its exclusion comorbid conditions may hinder comprehensive care for dysregulation. A proposed solution "combinatorial MASLD", would better address Further studies are necessary determine most appropriate nomenclature clinical practice.

Background/Objectives: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is increasingly recognized in inflammatory bowel (IBD) patients due to chronic inflammation and metabolic disturbances. However, reliable non-invasive biomarkers for MASLD prediction this population are lacking. This study evaluated the predictive value of scores lipid ratios onset IBD patients. Methods: An observational retrospective was conducted on 358 at “Renato Dulbecco” Teaching Hospital Catanzaro, Italy, a period between 1 January 2021 31 December 2024. Clinical laboratory data, including ratios, were analyzed using chi-square Kruskal–Wallis tests as appropriate. Post hoc comparisons Dunn’s test. Receiver operating characteristic analysis assessed their accuracy MASLD. p < 0.05 considered significant.

Abstract Recently, the term Metabolic-Associated Fatty Liver Disease (MAFLD) has been adopted to better reflect underlying pathology and association with metabolic issues. Beyond dietary factors physical activity, previous studies have suggested that persistent organic pollutants (POPs), may contribute etiology of MAFLD; however, this disease can also develop at very low POP exposure levels, making it challenging discern their specific effect. This study aims investigate potential link between POPs, prevalence MAFLD. Data from National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) was utilized for cross-sectional study. Participants were categorized based on MAFLD status levels various POPs measured in blood serum. Cox regression estimate adjusted ratio (aPR) used. Hazard Index (HI), Proportion Maximum Scaling (POMS), Toxicity Burden (TBI) applied assess mixtures. A total 4,224 participants included, 47 (33–65) years, 53.0% women, 50.1% had No significant sex differences observed main analysis regarding individual prevalence. However, sensitivity analyses revealed an inverse relationship certain prevalence, particularly women. Higher PCBs associated a lower highlighted effects pollutants, mixtures, sex-specific differences. The combined use HI, POMS, TBI provided more detailed risk assessment. Findings suggest biological stressors play roles how influence MAFLD, warranting further investigation into mechanisms health outcomes different ranges.
