WHtR, body roundness predict incident CVD in males

Body roundness index (BRI) and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) are more effective at predicting incident cardiovascular disease (CVD) in males than BMI, waist circumference (WC), and a body shape index (ABSI), as shown in a study with a 13-year follow-up.

Inherited risk predicts increases in fibrosis in MASLD patients

a day ago

Genetic risk score (GRS), polygenic risk score-hepatic fat content (PRS-HFC), its adjusted version (PRS-5), and PNPLA3 genotypes alone show a significant relationship with increased fibrosis severity per decade in patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), reports a study.
