The role of hepatic lipid composition in obesity-related metabolic disease (2021)
Journal Article
Willis, S. A., Bawden, S., Malaikah, S., Sargeant, J. A., Stensel, D. J., Aithal, G. P., & King, J. A. (2021). The role of hepatic lipid composition in obesity-related metabolic disease. Liver International, 41(12), 2819-2835. https://doi.org/10.1111/liv.15059

Obesity is a primary antecedent to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease whose cardinal feature is excessive hepatic lipid accumulation. Although total hepatic lipid content closely associates with hepatic and systemic metabolic dysfunction, accumulating...

Background and Aims: It is thought that alcohol intake and body mass index (BMI) interact supra-additively to modulate the risk of cirrhosis, but evidence for this phenomenon is limited. We investigated the interrelationship between alcohol and BMI o... Read More about Characterizing the risk interplay between alcohol intake and body mass index on cirrhosis morbidity.
