Abstract
BackgroundHyperuricemia may have a protective role in diseases characterized by high levels of oxidative stress, such as osteoporosis. Previous studies have shown that hyperuricemia is associated with osteoporotic. However, this association is controversial and even yielded conflicting results.ObjectivesThis study investigated the relationship between hyperuricemia and osteoporotic among Chinese adults.MethodsThe data of cross-sectional study was collected at Guangdong Second Provincial General Hospital in Guangzhou City, China between January 2009 and December 2019. Physical examinations and laboratory measurement variables were obtained from the medical check-up system. The multivariate-adjusted logistic regression model was performed to assess the association between hyperuricemia and osteoporotic.ResultsA total of 18917 participants (11334 males and 7579 females) were included in this study, with an average age of 46.23 years (SD: 11.67) at baseline. It included 5881 cases of hyperuricemia and 1587 osteoporotic. After adjusted for the confounding factors in logistic regression analysis, we observed a negative significant association between hyperuricemia and risk of osteoporotic (odds ratio [OR],0.852, 95%CI 0.795–0.967; P <0.05). Further stratified analyses showed a negative significant association with the risk of osteoporotic in women (OR,0.787, 95%CI 0.698–0.853; P <0.05), man (OR,0.897, 95%CI 0.786–0.954; P <0.05) and old adults (OR, 0.808, 95%CI, 0.759-0.894; P <0.05). No significant differences in other groups.ConclusionOur study observed participants with hyperuricemia had significantly less osteoporosis. More high-quality research is needed to further support these findings.References[1]Zong Q, Hu Y, Zhang Q, Zhang X, Huang J, Wang T.

Abstract
BackgroundPrevious studies have observed an increasing trend in the prevalence of hyperuricemia which is linked to the physiological prerequisite for gout in recent years. However, the prevalence of hyperuricemia varies across different populations and different areas.ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to explore the prevalence of hyperuricemia and influencing factors in Chinese adults.MethodsThe analysis was a part of a cross-sectional study in Guangdong Second Provincial General Hospital in Guangzhou City, China between January 2009 and December 2019. A total of 205922 participants (21401 with hyperuricemia) were included in this study. Hyperuricemia was defined as serum uric acid ≥416.0 µmol/L (7.0 mg/dl) for men and ≥357.0 µmol/L(6.0 mg/dl) for women. We calculated the prevalence of hyperuricemia and used the multivariate-adjusted logistic regression model to identify the risk factors associated with hyperuricemia.ResultsThe overall estimated prevalence of HUA was 10.4% in China. Our study showed the prevalence of hyperuricemia in male (10.7%) was higher than that in female (9.9%) (P<0.05). The prevalence of HUA in the age group(≥75) subjects (13.3%) was higher than others. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that sex (OR=1.75), age (OR=1.68), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) (OR=1.051), creatinine (Cr) (OR=1.045), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (OR=1.225), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (OR=1.466), systolic blood pressure (SBP) (OR=1.012),triglycerides (TG) (OR=1.460) and Body Mass Index (BMI) (OR=1.080) could increase the risk of hyperuricemia, while diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (OR=0.998), fasting plasma glucose (FPG) (OR=0.902) and total cholesterol (TC) (OR=0.704) were associated with a lower risk of hyperuricemia in all adults.ConclusionThe latest prevalence of hyperuricemia is high in Chinese adults and is associated with multiple factors, indicating that prevention and control strategies for hyperuricemia are needed urgently.References[1]Han B, Wang N, Chen Y, Li Q, Zhu C, Chen Y, Lu Y.

Abstract
The NCI-MATCH was designed to characterize the efficacy of targeted therapies in histology-agnostic driver mutation-positive malignancies. Sub-protocols F and G were developed to evaluate the role of crizotinib in rare tumors that harbored either ALK or ROS1 rearrangements. Patients with malignancies that progressed following at least one prior systemic therapy were accrued to the NCI-MATCH for molecular profiling, and those with actionable ALK or ROS1 rearrangements were offered participation in sub-protocols F or G, respectively. There were five patients who enrolled on Arm F (ALK) and four patients on Arm G (ROS1). Few grade 3 or 4 toxicities were noted, including liver test abnormalities, and acute kidney injury. For sub-protocol F (ALK), the response rate was 50% (90% CI 9.8-90.2%) with one complete response among the 4 eligible patients. The median PFS was 3.8 months, and median OS was 4.3 months. For sub-protocol G (ROS1) the response rate was 25% (90% CI 1.3-75.1%). The median PFS was 4.3 months, and median OS 6.2 months. Data from 3 commercial vendors showed that the prevalence of ALK and ROS1 rearrangements in histologies other than non-small cell lung cancer and lymphoma was rare (0.1% and 0.4% respectively). We observed responses to crizotinib which met the primary endpoint for ALK fusions, albeit in a small number of patients. Despite the limited accrual, some of the patients with these oncogenic fusions can respond to crizotinib which may have a therapeutic role in this setting.

Abstract
This article has been retracted: please see Elsevier Policy on Article Withdrawal (https://www.elsevier.com/about/our-business/policies/article-withdrawal). The article is a duplicate of a paper that has already been published in Medicine, 97 (2018) e11849 https://doi.org/10.1097/MD.0000000000011849. Redundant publications overweigh the relative importance of published findings and distort the academic record of the authors. One of the conditions of submission of a paper for publication is therefore that authors declare explicitly that the paper has not been previously published and is not under consideration for publication elsewhere. As such this article represents a misuse of the scientific publishing system. The scientific community takes a very strong view on this matter and apologies are offered to readers of the journal that this was not detected during the submission process.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the incidence of enteral feeding intolerance and its risk factors in patients with malignant oral and maxillofacial tumors. METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of 122 patients with malignant oral and maxillofacial tumor admitted in a general hospital for enteral nutrition between March, 2018 and March, 2021. The incidence of intolerance to enteral nutrition was analyzed, and the two groups of patients with and without intolerance were compared for age, gender, height, weight, pathological staging, types of enteral nutrition preparations, clinical treatment (physical hypothermia and nasal delivery), drug usage (sedatives, vasoactive drugs, acid suppressant, potassium preparation, antibiotics and hormones) and biochemical parameters (serum total protein, serum albumin, blood glucose and serum potassium concentration). Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of enteral nutritional feeding intolerance in patients. RESULTS Of the 122 patients, 52 had enteral feeding intolerance with an incidence rate of 42.6%. Logistic regression analysis showed that potassium preparation (OR=4.125, P=0.027, 95%CI: 1.178-14.444), sedatives (OR=4.125, P=0.000, 95%CI: 2.007-11.765) and hypoproteinemia (OR=3.557, P=0.010, 95%CI: 1.351-9.366) were independent risk factors of feeding intolerance in patients with malignant oral and maxillofacial tumors, while adding dietary fiber was a protective factor (OR= 0.108, P=0.015, 95%CI: 0.018-0.643). CONCLUSION The incidence of enteral feeding intolerance is high in patients with malignant oral and maxillofacial tumors. Enteral nutrition preparations with dietary fiber are recommended for these patients. The patients with potassium preparations, sedatives and hypoproteinemia should be closely monitored for enteral feeding intolerance, and timely intervention should be administered to reduce its incidence.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Dysregulated lipid metabolism has been reported in the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In the present study, we investigated the molecular characteristics of lipid-metabolism-related genes (IMRGs) as prognostic markers for HCC. MATERIALS AND METHODS Multi-dimensional bioinformatics analyses were performed to comprehensively analyze IMRGs, and to construct prognostic prediction signatures. RESULTS Data of 770 HCC patients and their corresponding 776 IMRGs were downloaded from three databases. Patients were classified into 2 molecular clusters that were associated with overall survival, clinical characteristics, and immune cells. The biological functions of the IMRGs differentially expressed between the 2 clusters were associated with tumor-related metabolic pathways. A 6 IMRG signature (6-IS), consisting of FMO3, SLC11A1, RNF10, KCNH2, ME1, and ZIC2, was established as an independent prognostic factor for HCC. The performance of the signature of 6-IS prognostic was verified in a validation set and compared to an external data set. It was revealed that the 6-IS could effectively predict the prognosis of patients with HCC. CONCLUSIONS This study provides new insights into the role of IMRGs in the pathogenesis of HCC, and presents a novel signature (6-IS) to predict the prognosis of HCC.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the clinical features of poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitor-related anemia in advanced and relapsed epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Methods: Patients diagnosed with advanced or relapsed EOC and treated with PARP inhibitor at National Cancer Center/National Clinical Research Center for Cancer/Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College between January 2015 to October 2020 were accrued. The data included PARP inhibitors, treatment details, and lab tests before treatment and during treatment were collected and the clinical characteristics of PARP inhibitor-related anemia were analyzed. Results: (1) A total of 98 patients with a median age of 56.5 years old (30-82 years old) were enrolled in this study. All patients were treated with PARP inhibitor (65 cases of olaparib, 17 cases of niraparib, and 16 cases of fluzoparib). The median treatment duration was 37.5 weeks (4-119 weeks). (2) The anemia rate was 40% (39/98), including 5% (5/98) of grade Ⅰ, 14% (14/98) of grade Ⅱ, 11% (11/98) of grade Ⅲ, and 9% (9/98) of grade Ⅳ. Fourteen patients with pre-treatment grade Ⅰ anemia had a higher rate of anemia events than the 80 patients without pre-treatment anemia, 7/14 vs 35% (28/80; χ2=4.281, P=0.039). (3) The median anemia occurrence time was 7.0 weeks (1-52 weeks), including 41% (16/39) of anemia cases occurred in 1-4 weeks, 26% (10/39) occurred in 5-8 weeks, 13% (5/39) occurred in 9-12 weeks, 3% (1/39) occurred in 13-16 weeks, 10% (4/39) occurred in 17-20 weeks, 8% (3/39) occurred ≥21 weeks. At the time of the lowest hemoglobulin tested, the median value of mean corpuscular volume (MCV) was 106 fl,which was higher than the up limit of normal range (100 fl), 74% (29/39) of anemia patients had an elevated MCV level; the median value of mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) was 36 pg, 54% (21/39) of anemia patients had an elevated MCH level; the median value of mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) was 320 g/L, 69% (27/39) of anemia patients had a higher MCHC level; 92% (36/39) of anemia patients had a normal level of serum iron; 79% (31/39) of anemia patients had a normal level of transferrin. 74% (29/39) of the anemia patients were macrocytic orthochromatic anemia. (4) Among the 39 patients with anemia, 20 patients (51%, 20/39) withhold the treatment of PARP inhibitor due to grade Ⅲ or Ⅳ anemia, including 10 patients (50%, 10/20) who resumed the PARP inhibitor treatment by suppling iron, folate, and vitamin B12. The median stopping time of PARP inhibitor was 5.5 weeks (2-10 weeks), while the other 10 patients terminated the PARP inhibitor treatment for not recovering from severe anemia. Conclusions: One of the common adverse effects of PARP inhibitors is anemia, which mostly happened in the first 3 months of treatment. In the treatment of EOC, PARP inhibitor-related anemia mainly manifest as macrocytic orthochromatic anemia, and most patients with normal serum iron and transferrin.

Abstract
Background Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease requiring prolonged treatment. New biologic therapies require long‐term evaluation to assess the durability of their efficacy and safety profiles over time. Objectives To evaluate the long‐term efficacy and safety of risankizumab (RZB) for the treatment of psoriasis. Methods LIMMitless is an ongoing, phase III, open‐label extension study evaluating the long‐term efficacy and safety of RZB in adults with moderate‐to‐severe plaque psoriasis following multiple phase II/III studies. This analysis assessed efficacy through 172 weeks of continuous RZB treatment by examining the proportion of patients achieving ≥ 90% or 100% improvement in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI 90 and PASI 100), static Physician’s Global Assessment of clear or almost clear (sPGA 0/1) and Dermatology Life Quality Index of no effect on quality of life (DLQI 0/1). Safety was assessed by recording adverse events (AEs) through the data cutoff date. The study is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (identifier: NCT03047395). Results Of 955 patients randomized to RZB 150 mg in the base studies, 897 patients continued into LIMMitless; 799 patients were still receiving treatment in LIMMitless at the time of data cutoff for this analysis. After 172 weeks of continuous RZB treatment, 85·5% of patients achieved PASI 90, 54·4% achieved PASI 100, 85·2% achieved sPGA 0/1, and 78·4% achieved DLQI 0/1 using modified nonresponder imputation. Rates of AEs leading to discontinuation and AEs of safety interest were low with long‐term treatment and comparable with those identified in the base studies. Conclusions Overall, long‐term continuous RZB was well tolerated and showed high and durable efficacy over 172 weeks.

Abstract
Background:Hyperuricemia has been reported to be significantly associated with risk of obesity. However, previous studies on the association between serum uric acid (SUA) and body mass index (BMI) yielded conflicting results.Objectives:The present study examined the relationship between SUA and obesity among Chinese adults.Methods:Data were collected at Guangdong Second Provincial General Hospital in Guangzhou City, China between January 2010 and December 2018. Participants with ≥2 medical checkup times were included in our analyses. Logistic regression model (LRM) was performed for data at baseline. For all participants, generalized estimation equation (GEE) model was used to assess the association between SUA and obesity, where the data were repeatedly measured over the nine-year study period. We calculated the cut-off values for SUA of obesity using the receiver operating characteristic curves (ROC) technique.Results:A total of 15,959 participants (10,023 males and 5,936females) were included in this study, with an average age of 37.38 years (SD: 13.27) and average SUA of 367.05 μmol/L (SD: 97.97) at baseline, respectively. Finally, 1078 participants developed obesity over the 9-year period. The prevalence of obesity was approximately 14.2% for high SUA level. In logistic regression analysis at baseline, we observed a positive association between SUA and risk of obesity: OR=1.84 (95% CI: 1.77,1.90) for per-SD increase in SUA. Considering repeated measures over 9-year for all participants in the GEE model, the per-SD OR was 1.85 (95% CI:1.77,1.91) for SUA and the increased risk of obesity were greater for male (OR=1.45) and elderly participants (OR=1.01). The SUA cutoff points for risk of obesity using ROC curves were approximately consistent with the international standard.Conclusion:Our study observed higher SUA level was associated with increased risk of obesity. More high-quality research is needed to further support these findings.References:[1]Nagahama S, Kashino I, Hu H, Nanri A, Kurotani K, Kuwahara K et al.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of liposome-paclitaxel and carboplatin combination chemoradiotherapy for patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). PATIENTS AND METHODS Seventy-nine consecutive patients treated with liposome-paclitaxel based concurrent chemoradiotherapy between January 2015 and December 2019 at Cancer hospital of the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (Zhejiang cancer hospital) were enrolled in this study. The overall response, toxicities, progression-free survival and overall survival were analyzed with SPSS software. RESULTS A total of 302 cycles of weekly chemotherapy were delivered, with a median 4 courses. After concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT), the efficacy was classified as CR in 4 cases (5.1%), PR in 22 cases (28.2%) and SD in 51 cases (65.4%). The median PFS and OS time were 18.2 months and 23.4 months. The 3-year PFS and OS rates were 45.1% and 43.6%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Liposome-paclitaxel and carboplatin concurrent with radiotherapy is a safe and effective modality for locally advanced ESCC. Further clinical investigation are warranted to evaluate the efficacy of this regimen.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of biologic therapies for psoriasis are significantly compromised by variable treatment responses. Thus, more precise management of psoriasis is needed. OBJECTIVES To identify subgroups of patients with psoriasis treated with biologic therapies, based on changes in their disease activity over time, that may better inform patient management. METHODS We applied latent class mixed modelling to identify trajectory-based patient subgroups from longitudinal, routine clinical data on disease severity, as measured by the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI), from 3546 patients in the British Association of Dermatologists Biologics and Immunomodulators Register, as well as in an independent cohort of 2889 patients pooled across four clinical trials. RESULTS We discovered four discrete classes of global response trajectories, each characterized in terms of time to response, size of effect and relapse. Each class was associated with differing clinical characteristics, e.g. body mass index, baseline PASI and prevalence of different manifestations. The results were verified in a second cohort of clinical trial participants, where similar trajectories following the initiation of biologic therapy were identified. Further, we found differential associations of the genetic marker HLA-C*06:02 between our registry-identified trajectories. CONCLUSIONS These subgroups, defined by change in disease over time, may be indicative of distinct endotypes driven by different biological mechanisms and may help inform the management of patients with psoriasis. Future work will aim to further delineate these mechanisms by extensively characterizing the subgroups with additional molecular and pharmacological data.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Huangqi decoction (HQD) has been used to treat chronic liver diseases since the 11th century, but the effective components in HQD against liver fibrosis have not been definitively clarified. PURPOSE To investigate and identify multiple effective components in HQD against liver fibrosis using a pharmacokinetics-based comprehensive strategy. METHODS The absorbed representative components in HQD and their metabolites were detected in human plasma and urine using high-resolution mass spectrometry combined with a database-directed method, and then pharmacokinetics in multiple HQD components in human plasma was analyzed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with triple-quadruple mass spectrometry. Furthermore, the anti-fibrotic effect of potential effective HQD components was studied in LX-2 cells and that of a multi-component combination of HQD (MCHD) was verified in a mouse CCl4-induced hepatic fibrosis model. RESULTS Twenty-four prototype components in HQD and 17 metabolites were identified in humans, and the pharmacokinetic characteristics of 14 components were elucidated. Among these components, astragaloside IV, cycloastragenol, glycyrrhizic acid, glycyrrhetinic acid, liquiritigenin, and isoliquiritigenin downregulated the mRNA expression of α-SMA; cycloastragenol, calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside, formononetin, glycyrrhetinic acid, liquiritin, and isoliquiritin downregulated the mRNA expression of Col I; and calycosin, liquiritigenin, isoliquiritigenin, cycloastragenol, and glycyrrhetinic accelerated the apoptosis of LX-2 cells. MCHD reduced serum aminotransferase activity and hepatic collagen fibril deposition in mice with CCl4-induced hepatic fibrosis. CONCLUSION Using the pharmacokinetics-based comprehensive strategy, we revealed that multiple effective HQD components act together against liver fibrosis.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the spectrum and antimicrobial resistance of major pathogens causing nosocomial infections in China, 2018. Methods: Non-duplicated nosocomial cases as well as pathogens causing bloodstream infections (BSI), hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) and intra-abdominal infections (IAI) from 11 teaching hospitals across China were collected. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of clinically significant strains were determined by agar dilution method or broth microdilution method. The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) M100-S29 criteria were used for interpretation, and the WHONET-5.6 software was used in data analysis. Results: A total of 1 590 cases were collected, including 831 cases from BSI, 450 cases from HAP and 309 cases from IAI. The most prevalent pathogens causing BSI were Escherichia coli (29.2%, 243/831), Klebsiella pneumoniae (16.2%, 135/831) and Staphylococcus aureus (10.1%, 84/831); the most prevalent pathogens causing IAI were E. coli (26.2%, 81/309), Enterococcus faecium (15.5%, 48/309) and K. pneumoniae (13.3%, 41/309); while Acinetobacter baumanii (24.7%, 111/450), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (20.7%, 93/450) and K. pneumoniae (16.2%, 73/450) were dominated in HAP. All S. aureus were susceptible to tigecycline, linezolid, daptomycin and glycopeptides; 77.8% (105/135) of S. aureus strains were susceptible to ceftaroline. Methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) accounted for 29.6% (40/135) of all the S. aureus, and was lower than the accounted rate of methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococcus (MRCNS) (83.7%, 41/49). One E. faecium strain (1.1%, 1/95) resistant to vacomycin and teicoplanin and one E. faecalis strain (2.3%, 1/43) resistant to linezolid was found. The prevalence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) was 56.1% (193/344) in E. coli and 22.1% (55/249) in K. pneumonia; the rate of carbapenem resistant E. coli and K. pneumonia was 4.1% (14/344) and 22.9% (57/249), respectively; the percentage of ceftazidime/avibactam resistant E. coli and K. pneumonia was 2.3% (8/344) and 2.0% (5/249), respectively; the percentage of colistin resistant E. coli and K. pneumonia was 1.5% (5/344) and 7.6% (19/249), respectively; no E. coli and K. pneumonia strains were found resistant to tigecycline. The rate of carbapenem resistant A. baumanii and P. aeruginosa were 78.9% (146/185) and 36.7% (66/180), respectively. A. baumanii showed low susceptibility to the antimicrobial agents except colistin (99.5%, 184/185) and tigecycline (91.4%, 169/185). Colistin, amikacin and ceftazidime/avibactam demonstrated high antibacterial activity against P. aeruginosa with susceptility rate of 100% (180/180), 93.3% (168/180) and 85.6% (154/180), respectively. Conclusions: Nosocomial Gram-negative pathogens show high susceptibilities to tigecycline, colistin and ceftazidime/avibactam in vitro. Antimicrobial resistance in A. baumannii is a serious problem. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae has increased, which should be monitored continuously in China.

Dose-response relationship between serum fibroblast growth factor 21 and liver fat content in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. DIABETES & METABOLISM 2020; 47:101221. [PMID: 33373666 DOI: 10.1016/j.diabet.2020.101221] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2020] [Revised: 12/03/2020] [Accepted: 12/06/2020] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIM Although serum fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) levels are associated with liver fat content in non-alcoholic liver fat disease (NAFLD), the precise nature of the association remains undetermined. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the potential dose-response relationship between FGF21 and liver fat content in NAFLD. METHODS For this exploratory study from a randomized trial, 220 NAFLD patients with central obesity were recruited via community-based screening and randomly assigned to either control, moderate or vigorous-moderate exercise groups for 12 months. After this exercise intervention, patients were followed-up for a further 12 months. Serum FGF21 levels were measured by ELISA. Intrahepatic triglyceride (IHTG) content was determined by proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy. RESULTS Of the 220 patients, 149 (67.7%) were female; mean age was 53.9 ± 7.1 years and mean BMI was 28.0 ± 2.9 kg/m2 for all patients. Baseline IHGT increased gradually (P = 0.029 for trend) according to baseline serum FGF21 quartiles 1, 2, 3 and 4 (212.3, 358.9, 538.7 and 793.5 pg/mL, respectively). On grouping the distribution of serum FGF21 level changes into quartiles at month 12, the relative IHTG loss increased as serum FGF21 levels were reduced (P = 0.004 for trend). A similar trend was observed at month 24 (P = 0.006 for trend). Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that changes in serum FGF21 levels were independently associated with changes in IHTG at both month 12 [β (SE), 0.136 (0.118); P = 0.048] and month 24 [β (SE), 0.152 (0.139); P = 0.041]. Using restricted cubic spline regression, changes in serum FGF21 were strongly and positively associated with their corresponding relative IHTG loss at both month 12 and follow-up (Poverall = 0.017, Pnon-linear = 0.044 and Poverall = 0.020, Pnon-linear = 0.361, respectively, for dose-response). CONCLUSION Serum FGF21 is strongly associated with liver fat content in a dose-response manner in centrally obese NAFLD patients. These findings support the use of serum FGF21 as a biomarker of liver fat content in NAFLD.
