    Abstract Abstract: Over the past decade, fatty liver disease has become a forefront health issue. The clinical implication of this silent disease extends well beyond just the liver and is linked to a variety of health concerns, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and cancer. The prevalence of fatty liver disease in the United States is estimated to be 25% and increasing. This article reviews the pathophysiology of fatty liver disease, how clinicians can recognize contributing factors, and appropriate interventions based on the American Association for the Study of Liver Disease's guidelines.

    Abstract Purpose of review: Even with insurance coverage increasing over time among the population with diabetes, a large proportion continues to have poorly controlled disease. The purpose of this narrative literature review is to describe the social determinants of poor management of type 2 diabetes among the insured population and illustrate drivers of poor outcomes beyond insurance coverage.
    Recent findings: Despite the provision of health insurance, social determinants play a significant role in shaping diabetes outcomes, especially for economic instability (employment, out-of-pocket expenses associated with diabetes management), food insecurity, education and literacy, access to quality health care (health systems designed to effectively manage chronic disease), neighborhood and the built environment (segregated neighborhoods, socioeconomic conditions of communities, housing), and social and community context (discrimination, social support). Multiple social determinants shape poor diabetes outcomes among the insured. These determinants are now being further exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has created the worst economic crisis for US families since the Great Depression. The evidence of this review points to the imperative need for more multilevel intervention approaches to address these determinants in the management of diabetes.

    Abstract Background Early screening and diagnosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) has always been a major challenge for pathologists. Artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted screening tools can serve as an adjunct for the objective interpretation of Papanicolaou (PAP)-stained oral smears. Aim This study aimed to develop a handy and sensitive computer-assisted AI tool based on color-intensity textural features to be applied to cytologic images for screening and diagnosis of OSCC. Methodology The study included two groups consisting of 80 OSCC subjects and 80 control groups. PAP-stained smears were collected from both groups. The smears were analyzed in Matlab software computed data and color intensity-based textural features such as entropy, contrast, energy, homogeneity, and correlation, were quantitatively extracted. Results In this study, a statistically significant difference was noted for entropy, energy, correlation, contrast, and homogeneity. It was found that entropy and contrast were found to be higher with a decrease in homogeneity, correlation, and energy in OSCC when compared to the control group. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was done and accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity were found to be 88%, 91%, and 81%, respectively. Conclusion The gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) color intensity-based textural features play a significant role in differentiating dysplastic and normal cells in the diagnosis of OSCC. Computer-aided textural analysis has the potential to aid in the early detection of oral cancer, which can lead to improved clinical outcomes.

    Abstract Objective: To determine whether food insecurity and perceived financial stress contribute to cost-related medication non-adherence (CRN) in stroke.
    Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of adult stroke survivors in the National Health Interview Survey (2014-2018). Weighted prevalence of food insecurity, perceived financial stress, and CRN by age was calculated. Multiple logistic regression was conducted between food insecurity or perceived financial stress and CRN, adjusting for demographic and clinical variables.
    Results: Prevalence of food insecurity, perceived financial stress, and CRN respectively were 38%, 75%, and 26% (age 18-44), 38%, 76%, and 21% (age 45-64) and 17%, 43%, and 6% (age≥ 65). Food insecurity and perceived financial stress respectively were associated with CRN in stroke survivors aged 45-64 [odds ratio (95% CI) 1.35 (1.18-1.54) and 1.44 (1.29-1.61)] and age ≥ 65 [1.77 (1.52-2.06) and 1.51 (1.37-1.67)].
    Conclusion: Food insecurity and perceived financial stress are prevalent in stroke survivors and associated with CRN.
