Diagnostic Accuracy of CT for the Detection of Hepatic Steatosis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Academic Background Hepatic steatosis is the result of the abnormal accumulation of triglycerides in hepatocytes, which can initiate a cascade of inflammatory responses, referred to as steatotic liver disease (SLD). Metabolic dysfunction–associat...

Academic Background Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is a chronic, relapsing autoimmune disorder primarily comprising Crohn’s Disease (CD) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC). The exact pathogenesis of IBD remains unclear, but it is known that abnormal immune responses play a critical role in its development, particularly the imbalance of CD4+ T cells. The...

Academic Background Metabolic-associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD) is a major health issue affecting over 30% of the global population and is closely related to various chronic diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, and renal dysfunction. The pathological spectrum of MASLD ranges from simple steatosis to steatohepatitis and progress...
