The risk of metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) seems to be tied to prolonged exposure to ambient air pollutants, such as nitrogen dioxide and particulate matter with aerodynamic diameters of ≤1, ≤2.5, and ≤10 µm, a recent study reports.

In patients undergoing hepatectomy, an intervention with enteral ecoimmunonutrition (EEIN) support appears to protect liver function, reduce serum endotoxin levels and inflammatory factors, improve immune function, and promote the recovery of postoperative gastrointestinal function, according to a recent study. These findings prove that EEIN support is viable for clinical application.
