Background: To investigate biomarker differences among patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) across body mass index (BMI) types, we analyzed clinical data from 2,013 subjects and serum samples from 402 patients. The clinical characteristic...
Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is the most common biliary tract malignancy and is often diagnosed at advanced stages, partly due to the absence of reliable biomarkers and limited understanding of its biology in African populations. This study aimed to characterize the metabolomic and lipoprotein profil...
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are systemic autoimmune diseases associated with increased cardiovascular risk and metabolic alterations. We applied 1H-NMR spectroscopy to profile lipoproteins and metabolites in women with RA, SLE, and healthy controls. Both RA an...
OBJECTIVE: Brown adipose tissue (BAT) burns fatty acids (FAs) to produce heat, and shows diurnal oscillation in glucose and triglyceride (TG)-derived FA-uptake, peaking around wakening. Here we aimed to gain insight in the diurnal regulation of metabolic BAT activity.
