This study aimed to compare the detection performance of Fibroscan and Hepatus in patients with metabolic dysregulation who are \"at-risk\" for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).Methods Between January 2021 and April 2021, 149 patients were enrolled in this study. Clinical data were collected, and all patients underwent both Fibroscan and Hepatus assessments to determine liver stiffness measurement (LSM) and attenuation parameters. The correlation between the results obtained from the two transient elastography (TE) devices was analyzed. Receiver operating characteristic curves (ROC) were constructed to compare the diagnostic value of Fibroscan and Hepatus for Hepatic Steatosis Index (HSI)-based NAFLD.Results The detection success rate of Hepatus (100.0%) was higher than that of Fibroscan (96.0%). LSM (r = 0.663, P0.05) and attenuation parameters (r = 0.778, P0.05) obtained by Fibroscan and Hepatus were significantly correlated. Hepatus tended to produce a higher LSM (Hepatus vs. Fibroscan: 6.04 vs. 5.66 kPa, P=0.016) but a lower attenuation parameter than Fibroscan (Hepatus vs. Fibroscan: 264 vs. 277 dB/m, P0.001). The area under the ROC curve for detecting HSI-based NAFLD was 0.811 for Fibroscan and 0.832 for Hepatus.Conclusion Measurements obtained by Fibroscan and Hepatus are strongly correlated, and the diagnostic value of the two TE devices is comparable in detecting HSI-based NAFLD. Hepatus offer a potential TE alternative in NAFLD examination.","PeriodicalId":515400,"journal":{"name":"The Indonesian Journal of Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Digestive Endoscopy","volume":"28 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140968511","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Analyses revealing IL21R as a PBC susceptibility gene and implicating dysfunctional VWF processing in portal hypertension deliver mechanistic insights. Quantifying childhood MAFLD informs screening needs, while supporting use of G6PD deficient liver donors enables transplantation access expansion through risk stratification. Updating Baveno criteria enhances PBC prognosis, and an HCC prognostic score identifies optimal RFA candidates to maximize treatment efficacy.Conclusion: Recent research leverages diverse data types, genetics, imaging, and machine learning to develop integrated predictive systems that allow more personalized therapy selection.

Anxiety play a significant role in causing dyspepsia through the Brain-Gut Axis mechanism. Although, there are many cases of anxiety and dyspepsia in Indonesia, there is still a lack of research on the relationship between anxiety and dyspepsia in Indonesia, especially in the clinic. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the relationship between anxiety and dyspepsia among outpatients at Atma Jaya Hospital.Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted on outpatients at Atma Jaya Hospital to investigate the relationship between anxiety and dyspepsia. The demographic and patient characteristic data, including gender, age, highest level of education, and habits, such as eating spicy food, drinking coffee, alcohol consumption, smoking, and NSAID used were collected. The GAD-7 and SF-LDQ questionnaires, which have been validated in Indonesian, were used in this study. Spearman correlation test was used to analyze the data to find the relationship between anxiety and dyspepsia.Results: This study obtained 158 participants. The age range of participants who experienced dyspepsia the most is 19-44 years(77.53%). The majority of those who experienced dyspepsia are female (79.12%). The highest education level of the participants who experienced dyspepsia is a Master’s degree (100%).

The PHES must be standardized based on the local healthy population before it can be used. The purpose of this study is to standardize the PHES with Indonesian local populations and set the cutoff point of PHES so it can be used to detect MHE in liver cirrhosis patients.Methods: PHES were administered to all enrolled subjects, which are healthy subjects and cirrhosis without overt encephalopathy subjects. The PHES consists of 5 psychometric tests. The influencing factors of PHES were assessed, and equations were developed to predict the expected result of each test. Diagnosis of MHE was built upon the deviation from the normal range value of PHES.Results: In total, 236 subjects participated in this research. The influencing factors of PHES of this study were age and education years. With the cutoff point of PHES less than -4, the prevalence of MHE was 37.7%, of which 7.6%, 50%, and 50% had Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CTP) grade A, B, and C respectively.Conclusions: The standardized version of PHES can be used to diagnose MHE in Indonesian liver cirrhosis patients.

Liver cirrhosis is the leading cause of increasing morbidity and mortality in adults worldwide. Systemic inflammation has been suggested to play an important role in causing progressive liver damage and is one of the leading causes of compensated and decompensated liver cirrhosis.Aim of StudyEvaluate the correlation of neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), albumin-bilirubin ratio (ABR), albumin-bilirubin score (ALBI), aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio (APRI), albumin-creatinine ratio (ACR), lymphocyte-monocyte ratio (LMR), de ritis ratio to the severity of liver cirrhosis as assessed by CTP score and MELD score.
