Article Abstract

This work consists of the study of the time-fractional human liver model with the Caputo-Fabrizio fractional derivative. The existence and uniqueness of the proposed model are shown using fixed point theory. Also, the stability of the considered model is shown using the Ulam Hyres theorem and the Lyapunov function. The solution of the proposed model is obtained using a semi-analytical and numerical scheme. The series solution obtained from the semi-analytical method gives the proper result at any time, similarly, the numerical scheme gives the solution for a long time. The obtained numerical results are compared with real clinical data and earlier published work and found to be very close to real data than earlier published work. Results in the graphs and tables show that the proposed fractional-order model is superior to the traditional model.

Background: The treatment of critically ill patients in intensive care units is becoming increasingly complex. For example, organ transplants are regularly carried out, the recipients are seriously ill, and the postoperative course can be complicated. This is why organ replacement and hemadsorption procedures are becoming increasingly important.

Nuclear receptors (NRs) are a superfamily of ligand-activated transcription factors that regulate gene expression in response to metabolic, hormonal, and environmental signals. These receptors play a critical role in metabolic homeostasis, inflammation, immune function, and disease pathogenesis, positioning them as key therapeutic targets. This review explores the mechanistic roles of NRs such as PPARs, FXR, LXR, and thyroid hormone receptors (THRs) in regulating lipid and glucose metabolism, energy expenditure, cardiovascular health, and neurodegeneration.

Background: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is conceptualized as a dimensional phenomenon in the DSM-5, but electronic health records (EHRs) rely on binary AUD definitions according to the ICD-10. The present study classifies AUD severity levels using EHR data and tests whether increasing AUD severity levels are linked with increased comorbidity.

Methods: Billing data from two German statutory health insurance companies in Hamburg included n = 21,954 adults diagnosed with alcohol-specific conditions between 2017 and 2021.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the gender-specific associations of skeletal muscle mass and fat mass with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and NAFLD-related liver fibrosis in two population-based studies.

Methods: Analyses were based on data from the MEGA (n = 238) and the MEIA study (n = 594) conducted between 2018 and 2023 in Augsburg, Germany. Bioelectrical impedance analysis was used to evaluate relative skeletal muscle mass (rSM) and SM index (SMI) as well as relative fat mass (rFM) and FM index (FMI); furthermore, the fat-to-muscle ratio was built.

Ciprofloxacin (CIP), a widely used fluoroquinolone antibiotic, has become a significant contaminant in aquatic environments due to its extensive use and incomplete metabolism. This review comprehensively analyses CIP pollution, including its sources, environmental and health impacts, and removal strategies. Chemical methods such as advanced oxidation processes and physical techniques like adsorption are evaluated for their efficiency in CIP removal.
