Heart–liver co-management in MASLD: expert perspectives and recommendations from a multidisciplinary cardiometabolic framework
Abstract Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is recognized as a systemic metabolic disorder with marked cardiovascular implications, as cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of death.
VN1K is a pangenome-informed multi-omics and phenomics resource for the Vietnamese population
|
Abstract The population of Vietnam remains underrepresented in global genomic databases. Here, we present VN1K, a resource of multi-omics and phenotypic information for 1011 unrelated Vietnamese individuals. We present high-depth short-read whole-genome sequencing data for all samples along with various -omics datasets.

Predictors of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver diseases (MASLD) in Vietnamese population
|
Abstract Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) comprises a spectrum of liver diseases from simple steatosis, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) which progresses to fibrosis and compensated cirrhosis. Worldwide, MASLD significantly contributes to the rising incidence of liver cancer. Lille is known about its predictors in Asian population and particularly among Vietnamese.

Editorial: Genotyping for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Risk Stratification in the General Population. Authors' Reply
We thank Prasitsumrit and Chen for their thoughtful commentary on our work and for highlighting the unmet need for effective risk stratification of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) beyond established populations with cirrhosis or chronic viral hepatitis [1, 2]. We agree that a substantial proportion of HCC cases arise in individuals without traditional indications for surveillance, demonstrating the importance of developing pragmatic strategies to refine risk assessment in broader populations.
Editorial: Combination Therapies for MASH: A Step Forward or More Complexity?
Metabolic dysfunction–associated steatohepatitis (MASH) has become a growing clinical and public health challenge as obesity and metabolic disease rise worldwide [1]. Although glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) and resmetirom have been FDA-approved and shown to improve liver histology, their effects are often limited, particularly in patients with advanced fibrosis [2]. These highlight the need for strategies to address the multiple interacting pathways involved in MASH.

Paediatric clinical decision support: Evaluation of a best practice alert for red blood cell transfusion
DISCUSSION We successfully implemented a BPA for RBC transfusion appropriateness at a large, tertiary care children's hospital system. We demonstrated sustained use and cost savings in keeping with a prior systematic review and meta-analysis of data assessing transfusion behavioural interventions [6].

Soluble CD137 and risk of hepatocellular carcinoma: nested case–control studies in cohorts in Shanghai and Singapore - British Journal of Cancer
Abstract Background The majority of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cases occur in the presence of cirrhosis. Biomarkers of cirrhosis-associated immune dysfunction such as CD8+ T cell cytokines could aid HCC risk assessment. Methods CD8+ T cell cytokines were determined in pre-diagnostic serum in two studies including 315 HCC case–control pairs in the Shanghai Cohort Study (SCS) and 197 pairs in the Singapore Chinese Health Study (SCHS).
