Using a liver stiffness measurement to screen for liver fibrosis in patients with type 2 diabetes could help identify those at an increased risk of all-cause mortality. While liver stiffness ...
NHANES 2017–2018 elastography data (n=4102) linked to mortality showed 59 deaths over ~24 months; decedents were older and more likely to have diabetes. MASLD (CAP ≥274 dB/m) with diabetes carried ...
Macrophages are central to mechanobiology research: their physical characteristics-stiffness, adhesion, and ECM (extracellular matrix) sensing-are inextricably linked to their phenotypic polarization ...
Clinical studies have shown that aortic arch pulse‐wave velocity (PWV aa), a measure of local aortic stiffness, is a strong independent predictor of subsequent white matter hyperintensity volume and ...
Noninvasive liver diagnostic devices are transforming the detection and management of liver disease. The leading device-based solutions showcase this innovative technology and offer numerous clinical ...
Liver stiffness measurement measured by vibration-controlled transient elastography with cut-off of 25 kPa may detect clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH) as previously suggested by ...
GAITHERSBURG, Md., Dec. 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Altimmune, Inc. (ALT) (Nasdaq: ALT), a late clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing therapies that address serious liver diseases, ...
IN A LARGE international cohort of nearly 1,800 patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), researchers have shown that the most recent liver stiffness measurement (LSMc) is the single strongest ...
Liver fibrosis may be diagnosed and staged — no fibrosis (stage F0), mild fibrosis (F1), significant fibrosis (F2), advanced fibrosis (F3), and cirrhosis (F4) — with the use of clinical parameters and ...
