Abstract
Diets high in fat and sugar lead to metabolic syndrome (MetS) and related chronic diseases. We investigated the effects of commercially available, cold-pressed polyphenol-rich black currant (BC) and cornelian cherry (CC) juices on the prevention of MetS in Wistar rats induced by a 10-weeks high-fat high-fructose (HFF) diet. Juice consumption, either BC or CC, with a HFF diet resulted in lower serum triglycerides compared to only the HFF consumption. Both juices also mitigated the effects of HFF on the liver, pancreas, and adipose tissue, by preserving liver and pancreas histomorphology and reducing visceral fat and adipocyte size. Furthermore, supplementation with both juices reduced glucagon and up-regulated insulin expression in the pancreas of the rats on the HFF diet, whereas the BC also showed improved glucose regulation. BC juice also reduced the expression of IL-6 and hepatic inflammation compared to the group only on HFF diet. Both juices, especially BC, could be a convenient solution for the prevention of MetS in humans.

Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), the most common chronic liver disorder, is closely associated with insulin resistance, obesity, and metabolic syndromes. A body of research has proposed that olive oil, a basic component of the Mediterranean diet with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, may alleviate metabolic disturbances and retard the progression of NAFLD. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the effectiveness of olive oil intake in people with NAFLD. We systematically searched the major electronic databases (PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials), as well as grey literature sources, to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) investigating the effects of olive oil consumption on biochemical and anthropometric parameters of individuals with NAFLD. The quality of the studies was evaluated using the risk-of-bias tool 2.0 (RoB 2). The mean difference (MD) and the 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated using fixed-effects and random-effects models. Seven RCTs involving 515 subjects were included in the analysis. In the random-effects model, no statistically significant differences were identified with respect to alanine transaminase (MD = -1.83 IU/L, 95% CI: -5.85, 2.19 IU/L, p = 0.37, I2 = 69%) and aspartate transaminase (MD = -1.65 IU/L, 95% CI: -4.48, 1.17 IU/L, p = 0.25, I2 = 72%) levels or waist circumference values (MD = -0.23 cm, 95% CI: -1.23, 0.76 cm, p = 0.65, I2 = 0%). However, a significant effect on body mass index was observed (MD = -0.57 kg/m2, 95% CI: -1.08, -0.06 kg/m2, p = 0.03, I2 = 51%) for subjects who received olive oil compared to those who received an alternative diet or placebo. The findings of the present meta-analysis suggest a modestly positive impact of olive oil intake on body weight in people with NAFLD.

Abstract
To explore the potential mechanism of action of Tegillarca granosa polysaccharide (TGP) in treating nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), the study conducts in vivo experiments using male C57BL/6 mice fed a high-fat diet while administering TGP for 16 weeks. The study measures body weight, liver weight, serum biochemical markers, pathological histology, liver lipid accumulation, oxidative stress and inflammation-related factors, lipid synthesis and metabolism-related gene and protein expression, and the composition and abundance of intestinal flora. Additionally, short-chain fatty acid (SCFAs) content and the correlation between intestinal flora and environmental factors are measured. The results show that TGP effectively reduces excessive hepatic lipid accumulation, dyslipidemia, abnormal liver function, and steatosis in the mice with NAFLD. Moreover, TGP effectively regulates intestinal flora disorder, increases the diversity of intestinal flora, and affects the relative abundance of specific bacteria while also increasing the content of SCFAs. These findings provide a basis for exploring the regulatory effect of T. granosa polysaccharide on NAFLD based on intestinal flora and highlight its potential as a natural liver nutraceutical.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aims to investigate the relationship between different dietary patterns and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). METHODS Residents over 30 years old in the ecological longevity cohort in Gongcheng Yao Autonomous County, Guangxi Province were the research objects selected from 2018 to 2019. Physical examination, baseline population survey, and food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) survey were conducted. Dietary patterns were analyzed by factor analysis. Influencing factors of NAFLD were analyzed by multiple logistic regression. RESULTS NAFLD was diagnosed in 241 of 2664 participants based on ultrasonography, and the detection rate was 9.0%. Factor analysis yielded a total of three dietary patterns, namely, traditional Chinese, Western, and cereal-potato dietary patterns. Results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for confounding factors, participants in the highest quartile of the Western dietary pattern exhibited a higher prevalence of NAFLD (OR = 2.799; 95% CI: 1.620-4.837; p < 0.05) than participants in the lowest quartile. Participants in the highest quartile of the cereal-potato pattern exhibited a decreased risk of NAFLD compared with those in the lowest quartile (OR = 0.581; 95% CI: 0.371-0.910, p < 0.05). The traditional Chinese patterns did not show any association with the risk of NAFLD. CONCLUSIONS The Western dietary pattern increases the risk of NAFLD, whereas the cereal-potato dietary pattern reduces the risk of NAFLD. It is important for the prevention and control of NAFLD to adhere to the cereal-potato dietary.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS The contribution of the balance between overall oxidative stress and antioxidant status in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is unclear. The oxidative balance score (OBS) comprises dietary and lifestyle pro- and antioxidant components that indicate the overall oxidative stress burden. We investigated the association between OBS and the incidence of NAFLD in middle-aged and older Korean adults. METHODS Among the 10,030 participants of the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study_Ansan and Ansung cohort, 5065 without NAFLD at baseline were selected for secondary analysis. OBS was categorized into quartiles. Multiple Cox proportional hazard regression analyses were performed to estimate the hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for NAFLD incidence by sex-specific OBS quartile groups after adjusting for confounders. RESULTS During the follow-up period (median 13.4 years), 913 (43.2%) men and 1288 (43.9%) women were newly diagnosed with NAFLD. Compared with that of the lowest quartile (Q1) group, the adjusted HR (95% CI) for NAFLD incidence in Q2, Q3, and Q4 groups was 0.85 (0.71-1.00), 0.65 (0.54-0.78), and 0.50 (0.40-0.62) in men, and 0.85 (0.73-0.99), 0.66 (0.56-0.77), and 0.48 (0.40-0.59) in women, respectively, and for NAFLD incidence, per incremental change in OBS, was 0.90 (0.87-0.92) in men and 0.88 (0.86-0.90) in women. CONCLUSIONS A higher OBS was significantly associated with a lower risk for NAFLD incidence. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and an antioxidant-rich diet is a potentially viable strategy for preventing NAFLD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is widely prevalent. Poor dietary and living habits are closely related to the development of MAFLD. Diet and exercise intervention is one of the important measures for the prevention and treatment of MAFLD, but the intervention strategies are still inconclusive, and further research is still required.
AIM To explore the effect of individualized intervention through limited energy balanced diet and exercise on MAFLD.
METHODS MAFLD patients were divided into either an intervention group or a control group according to whether they received individualized diet and exercise intervention or not. At the time of enrollment (T0), the anthropometric information and laboratory indicators of the patients were collected, and the general information, family history, dietary and living habits, and food frequency of the patients were collected by questionnaire survey. Individualized diet and exercise intervention was executed in the intervention group, while routine health education without individualized intervention was executed in the control group. We collected the above parameters after 6 mo (T1) for the second time, and then compared their differences between T0 and T1.
RESULTS Among 127 MAFLD patients included, those with daily travelling by car accounted for 62.99%, and those preferring sedentary lifestyle (>8 h/d), heavy flavor food, and extra meal accounted for 48.82%, > 50%, and 37.01%, respectively. Five main factors were extracted after factor analysis, including "fungus and vegetable", "grain and milk", "meat and egg", "aquatic", and "snack". The upper quintile (Q5) of the "meat and egg" factor could increase the risk of high triglyceride (odds ratio [OR] = 5.60, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.41-22.24) and high cholesterol (OR = 6.45, 95%CI: 1.51-27.63) compared with the lower quintile (Q1); the middle quintile (Q3) of the "aquatic" factor could also increase the risk of high cholesterol (OR = 4.54, 95%CI: 1.10-18.78). The differences in anthropometric information and laboratory test indicators (except glycosylated hemoglobin in the control group) between T0 and T1 were statistically significant (P < 0.05) both in the intervention group and in the control group.
CONCLUSION Individualized dietary and exercise intervention based on the Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents can help MAFLD patients reduce body weight, body mass index, waist circumference, visceral fat area, body fat ratio, etc. and improve their glucose and lipid metabolism effectively.

Abstract
Epigenetic factors, including non-coding RNA regulation, play a vital role in the development of obesity and have been well researched. Transfer RNA-derived small RNA (tsRNA) is a class of non-coding RNA proven to be involved in various aspects of mammalian biology. Here we take pigs as a model for obesity research and use tsRNA-seq to investigate the difference in tsRNA expression in the subcutaneous adipose tissue of obese and lean pigs to elucidate the role of tsRNA in obesity development. A total of 482 tsRNAs were identified in pig adipose tissue, of which 123 were significantly differentially accumulated tsRNAs compared with the control group. The tRF-5c was the main type of these tsRNAs. The largest number of tsRNAs produced was the Gly-carrying tRNA, which produced 81 tsRNAs. Functional enrichment analysis revealed that differential tsRNAs indirectly participated in MAPK, AMPK, insulin resistance, the TNF signaling pathway, adipocytokine signaling pathway, and other signaling pathways by interacting with target genes. These are involved in bioenergetic metabolic regulatory processes, suggesting that tsRNAs may influence these pathways to mediate the regulation of energy metabolism in porcine adipocytes to promote lipid deposition, thus contributing to obesity. Our findings suggest a potential function of tsRNA in regulating obesity development.
