In a small cross-sectional study, each 1-unit increase in TyG index was associated with a 2.06-fold increased risk of angiographically proven CAD among 424 patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease [24]. The results from 15 cohort studies were reported in two separate meta-analyses that...
Liver fibrosis resulting from nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and metabolic disorders is highly prevalent in patients with severe obesity and poses a significant health challenge. However, there is a lack of data on the effectiveness of noninvasive factors in predicting liver fibrosis. ...
SARS-CoV-2 infection can induce immune hyperactivation, causing a cytokine storm, which plays a key role in inducing pulmonary injury, critical prognosis and multiple organ failure [10]. In a viral infection, the above systems are dysregulated, which facilitates disease pathogenesis. Cell death mech...
