Predictability of noninvasive liver fibrosis score for cardiac events in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
Patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) have a higher risk of cardiac events. However, although the severity of liver fibrosis is related to worsening prognosis in patients with NAFLD, it is unclear whether the noninvasive liver fibrosis score has a predictive value for cardiac events.

Treatment Intensification following Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonist in Type 2 Diabetes: Comparative Effectiveness Analyses Between Free vs. Fixed combination of GLP-1 RA and Basal Insulin. RESTORE-G Real-World Study
Add-on of basal insulin (BI) to intensify the ongoing therapy with glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) is recommended, but it is unclear if free or fixed combination of BI and GLP-1 RA produce similar outcomes. A retrospective comparative effectiveness analysis of the add-on of glargine 300 U/mL (Gla-300) to ongoing GLP-1 RA vs. switch to fixed ratio combination of degludec and liraglutide (IDegLira) was performed.

Longitudinal associations of the alternative healthy eating index with coronary artery calcification and pericardial adiposity in US adults with and without type 1 diabetes
Long-term associations between the alternative healthy eating index (AHEI) score and two predictive indicators for CVD, pericardial adipose tissue (PAT) and coronary artery calcification (CAC) volume, are lacking. Our study aims to investigate the longitudinal associations of the AHEI score with measures of CAC and PAT in adults with and without type 1 diabetes (T1D).

Body surface scan anthropometrics are associated with grip strength in the general population
Body shape and anthropometrics are well known risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality. Handgrip strength (HGS) is also a meaningful marker of health and a promising predictor of CVD and mortality. There is a lack of studies who systematically investigated associations of body shape and anthropometrics with HGS. We investigated, if anthropometric markers derived from 3D body scanning are related to HGS in a population-based study. (Source: Nutrition, Metabolism, and Cardiovascular Diseases : NMCD)

The dysfunctional adiposity index is a clinical surrogate of pericardial fat in adults without premature CVD: a sub-analysis of the GEA Mexican study control group
The Dysfunctional Adiposity Index (DAI) is a clinical surrogate for evaluating adipose tissue functionality and cardiometabolic health. However, its association with Pericardial Fat Volume (PFV) has not been tested. (Source: Nutrition, Metabolism, and Cardiovascular Diseases : NMCD)

Association of a dietary inflammatory index with cardiometabolic, endocrine, liver, renal and bones biomarkers: cross-sectional analysis of the uk biobank study
Research into the relationship between an Energy-adjusted Diet-Inflammatory Index (E-DII) and a wider health-related biomarkers profile is limited. Much of the existing evidence centers on traditional metabolic biomarkers in populations with chronic diseases, with scarce data on healthy individuals. Thus, this study aims to investigate the association between an E-DII score and 30 biomarkers spanning metabolic health, endocrine, bone health, liver function, cardiovascular, and renal functions, in healthy individuals.
