Prenatal and childhood growth influence the risk of developing the metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes. Both conditions are associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Our aim was to explore the associations between early growth and adult NAFLD.Methods. We studied 1587 individuals ...
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is an increasing health problem worldwide, with genetic, epigenetic, and environmental components. Here, we describe the first example of NAFLD caused by genetic disruption of a mammalian potassium channel subunit. Mice with germline deletion of the KCNE2 pot...
Fatty liver disease causes huge economic losses in the poultry industry due to its high occurrence and lethality rate. Three-dimensional (3D) chromatin architecture takes part in disease processing by regulating transcriptional reprogramming. The study is carried out to investigate the alterations of hep...

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a common metabolic disease that affects 20–30% of individuals worldwide. Liver puncture remains the gold standard for the diagnosis of liver diseases despite limitations regarding invasive nature and sample variability. It is of great clinical significance ...

Lameness is a multifactorial disease that can result from a variety of causative factors, including diet, housing conditions, concurrent diseases, and genetic influences. Evidence is growing, however, suggesting that lameness also might be triggered during the transition period (Proudfoot et al., 2010...
Emphysema is an anatomically defined condition that overlaps substantially withchronic obstructive pulmonary disease, the fourth leading cause of death worldwide. Although smoking leads to emphysema in the upper lobes of the lungs, people who have never smoked may also have tissue destruction patterns ...
Among the comorbidities were chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic heart failure, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, liver disease, and chronic kidney disease. Besides, days of mechanical ventilation and in-hospital mortality were recorded. All diagnostic and therapeutic protocols were based on ...
