Background: In humans, CYP3A drug-metabolizing enzyme subfamily is the most important. Numerous pathophysiological factors, such as diabetes and obesity, were shown to affect CYP3A activity. Often considered a precursor state for type II diabetes, metabolic syndrome exerts a modulating role on CYP3A, in our hypothesis. Objective: To evaluate the effect of metabolic syndrome on CYP3A drug-metabo...

Introduction: Measures of hip muscle morphology and composition (e.g., size fatty infiltration) are possible with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Standardised protocols or guidelines do not exist for evaluation characteristics, hindering reliable valid inter-study analysis. This scoping review aimed to collate synthesise MRI methods measuring lateral infiltration inform the future development...

After the first description of fatty pancreas in 1933, the effects of pancreatic steatosis have been poorly investigated, compared with that of the liver. However, the interest of research is increasing. Fat accumulation, associated with obesity and the metabolic syndrome (MetS), has been defined as "fatty infiltration" or "nonalcoholic fatty pancreas disease" (NAFPD). The term "fatty replaceme...

Reye's syndrome is a severe acute paediatric disorder characterised by encephalopathy with pronounced cerebral oedema and by diffuse fatty infiltration of the viscera, particularly the liver.' It may occur at any age in childhood. Typically a previously normal child has a viral type prodromal illness followed in a few days by vomiting, altered consciousness, and often convulsions. The liver may...

Aim Peritoneal endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease particularly associated with macrophages. Of note, adipose tissues fibrotic changes in the context of peritoneal endometriotic lesions are often observed during surgery. However, characteristics still unknown. In this study, we investigated status retroperitoneal adjacent to pelvic lesions. Methods Thirty-two patients who underwent ...
