Resmetirom and Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis: Perspectives on Multidisciplinary Management from Global Healthcare Professionals.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The approval of resmetirom brings great hope to patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). The purpose of this review is to explore its impact on the global health environment. The implementation of multidisciplinary management MASH is proposed. RECENT FINDINGS: Resmetirom has benefits in the treatment of MASH, and its safety and effectiveness have been studied. The adverse events (AEs) need to be noticed. To improve patient outcomes, a multimodal approach with medication such as resmetirom, combined with metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) and lifestyle interventions can be conducted. MASH, a liver disease linked with obesity, is a challenging global healthcare burden compounded by the absence of any approved pharmacotherapy. The recent conditional approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States of resmetirom, an oral, liver-directed, thyroid hormone receptor beta-selective agonist, marks a significant milestone, offering a treatment option for adults with non-cirrhotic MASH and who have moderate to advanced liver fibrosis. This narrative review discusses the efficacy and safety of resmetirom and its role in the therapeutic landscape of MASH treatment. Despite the promising hepatoprotective effect of resmetirom on histological liver endpoints, its use need further research, particularly regarding ethnic differences, effectiveness and cost-effectiveness, production scalability, social acceptance and accessibility. In addition, integrating resmetirom with other multidisciplinary therapeutic approaches, including lifestyle changes and MBS, might further improve clinical liver-related and cardiometabolic outcomes of individuals with MASH. This review highlights the importance of a comprehensive treatment strategy, supporting continued innovation and collaborative research to refine treatment guidelines and consensus for managing MASH, thereby improving clinical patient outcomes in the growing global epidemic of MASH. Studies done to date have been relatively short and ongoing, the course of the disease is highly variable, the conditions of various patients vary, and given this complex clinical phenotype, it may take many years of clinical trials to show long-term benefits.

Auxiliary use of ChatGPT in surgical diagnosis and treatment.

ChatGPT can be used as an auxiliary tool in surgical diagnosis and treatment in several ways. One of the most incredible values of using ChatGPT is its ability to quickly process and handle large amounts of data and provide relatively accurate information to healthcare workers. Due to its high accuracy and ability to process big data, ChatGPT has been widely used in the healthcare industry for tasks such as assisting medical diagnosis, giving predictions of some diseases, and analyzing some medical cases. Surgical diagnosis and treatment can serve as an auxiliary tool to help healthcare professionals. Process large amounts of medical data, provide real-time guidance and feedback, and increase healthcare's overall speed and quality. Although it has great acceptance, it still faces issues such as ethics, patient privacy, data security, law, trustworthiness, and accuracy. This study aimed to explore the auxiliary use of ChatGPT in surgical diagnosis and treatment.
