[Prognosis and treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and steatohepatitis] (original) (raw)
2012, Ugeskrift For Laeger
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and steatohepatitis (NASH) are among the most common liver diseases. NAFLD with pure steatosis is considered benign. NASH, however, may progress to liver cirrhosis with risk of liver cancer. Therefore, it is important to search for treatment modalities for NASH. Because obesity and insulin resistance are risk factors for NASH, weight loss and exercise are considered mandatory, although limited data are in support. Presently, we focus on the prognosis of NAFLD and NASH and on pharmaceutical treatment, especially in the form of vitamin E and pioglitazone.

The most frequent monogenic predisposition to CRC is hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC). Less frequent are syndromes with polyposis. In some families the occurrence of CRC indicates a familial risk of CRC without the diagnostic criteria for the above syndromes being fulfilled. In families where causative mutations are identified, predictive genetic testing is offered. When no mutation is identified in a family, the risk of individual members of the family is evaluated according to the family history. Individuals with a high risk of CRC are offered surveillance.

[Sausage-related Listeria monocytogenes infection.]
Ugeskrift for laeger, 2014
Infection with Listeria monocytogenes is rare and mainly seen in immunosuppressed patients. Infection with L. monocytogenes has a mortality rate of 30%. We present a case report of L. monocytogenes bacteraemia and endocarditis in a 70-year-old man with several co-morbidities and following four major surgical procedures. This illustrates the findings and characteristics in one of the 16 patients who died in 2013 and 2014 this summer due to sausage-related L. monocytogenes infection.
