Abstract Insulin is the major endocrine hormone responsible for regulating whole-body glucose homeostasis by regulating glucose uptake in insulin-sensitive tissue. Obesity is one of the main factors initiating the development of insulin resistance through increased adipose tissue size, inflammation, and ectopic fat deposition in insulin-sensitive tissues. Inflammation and fat accumulation are key drivers for losing […]

Abstract Psoriatic disease (PsD) is a complex, heterogeneous disease with unmet medical needs in terms of its diagnosis, management, and prognosis. The identification of biomarkers could improve the implementation of precision medicine in PsD, but to date, none of these biomarkers have been clinically validated. Biomarkers can support clinical trials in several ways, including (1) […]

Abstract BACKGROUND The primary aim of this study is to investigate the impact of MBS induced weight loss on cognition, and secondary investigate the impact of this weight loss on adipokines, inflammatory factors, vascular markers, mood and physical activity three years after MBS. METHODS This observational study assessed data from 107 patients with severe obesity […]

Abstract INTRODUCTION Osteoarthritis (OA) involves an inflammatory component, presenting as synovitis and systemic low-grade inflammation. Preliminary evidence suggests that anti-inflammatory treatments may offer symptomatic and structural benefits in OA. More targeted approaches have been proposed and tested, but the means of identifying the clinical and molecular characteristics of patients with an inflammatory subtype remains unclear. […]

Abstract UNLABELLED In the largest meta-analysis of international cohorts to date, a family history of fracture is confirmed as a significant BMD-independent predictor of future fracture risk. Parental and sibling histories of fracture carry the same significance for future fracture, including the impact of family hip fracture on future hip fracture risk. PURPOSE We have […]

Abstract BACKGROUND Non-invasive tests (NITs) are central to diagnosing and stratifying risk in steatotic liver disease (SLD). However, it remains unclear whether guideline-recommended NIT cut-offs apply to metabolic and alcohol-related liver disease (MetALD). AIM Evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic performance of five NITs in patients with MetALD. METHODS Single-centre study with 423 SLD patients, of […]
