  • In 6,847 metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) patients (median follow-up 8.8 yrs), 19.6% died (6.5% CV, 1.3% diabetes)
  • Higher estimated glucose disposal rate (eGDR) was linked to reduced all-cause (HR=0.94, P < 0.001), CV (HR=0.90, P < 0.001), & diabetes mortality (HR=0.70, P < 0.001)
  • ROC AUCs: 0.606, 0.631, 0.729 respectively, eGDR shows prognostic relevance in MASLD.

  • As per a long-term follow-up study of 15.7 years, higher long term exposure to air pollutants like fine particulate matter (PM2.5), nitrogen dioxide, and black carbon increased Parkinson’s disease risk (hazard ratios per interquartile range were 1.05, 1.03, 1.04, resp.)
  • Warm season ozone showed a slight inverse association (HR 0.98)
  • Findings supported that air pollution was a risk factor for Parkinson’s disease.

  • Mortality benefit for women was limited to ages 18–44 (aOR 0.72)
  • COVID-19 years saw mortality rise across all groups, most in young men (from 0.48% to 0.89%)

  • This randomized study showed that biparametric MRI‑first screening, regardless of PSA levels increased biopsy (10.8% vs 5.2%) and csPCa detection (4.6% vs 1.8%) as compared to those who received bpMRI only if PSA >3 ng/ml
  • Benefit–harm metrics favored MRI first, with higher grade selectivity, biopsy efficiency, and biopsy avoidance
  • The strategy was cost effective with no serious adverse events.

The speaker highlighted Secukinumab’s expanding role in psoriasis care, emphasizing its strong data on clear-skin outcomes, sustained efficacy, favorable safety, and robust benefits in managing psoriatic comorbidities including PsA.
