LETM and AQP4-IgG seropositivity were strong predictors of spinal movement disorders, while MOG-IgG and African American race are protective factors. Recently published data from a prospective observational study revealed that spinal-generated movement disorders are highly prevalent in non-multiple sclerosis (MS) demyelinating disorders of the spinal cord and their prevalence rates were much higher than the rates reported in MS. Overall, the prevalence was highest in aquaporin-4-positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (AQP4+ NMOSD) and lowest in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody disorder (MOGAD).

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is an emerging global health issue, recognized as one of the leading causes of chronic liver disease. The worldwide prevalence of NAFLD stands at 32.4%, with higher rates in males (39.7%) compared to females (25.6%). NAFLD is characterized by the abnormal accumulation of lipids in hepatocytes and elevated liver enzyme levels. Progression of NAFLD can lead to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), liver cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Recently, NAFLD has been redefined as metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) to better reflect its association with metabolic abnormalities. MAFLD shows a higher risk of disease progression compared to NAFLD.
