This study tested a new ultrasound software that measures liver fat in children and teens aged 5 to 21 with or at risk for fatty liver disease. Researchers compared the ultrasound results to standard MRI scans to see if the ultrasound could accurately detect liver fat. If it work…

This study tested how well a special MRI scan called LiverMultiScan can measure liver fat, iron, and scarring. 61 adults with various liver diseases had up to 6 scans on different machines. The goal was to see if the results are consistent when repeated on the same scanner or on …

This study tested whether a pop-up alert in the electronic medical record could help doctors remember to refer patients with fatty liver disease (NASH) to a liver specialist. Thirty doctors from internal medicine, family medicine, and endocrinology took part. The goal was to see …

This study examined medical records of 263 adults with NASH to see how factors like age, other health problems, and medications relate to the severity of liver scarring. The goal was to identify which patients are at higher risk for advanced fibrosis. The findings may help doctor…

This early-stage study tested the safety of a new drug called ACT500 in 72 healthy Chinese adults. Participants received either the drug or a placebo, and researchers monitored side effects and how the drug moved through the body. The goal was not to treat disease but to gather e…
