The nuclear IL-33 functions as a transcription cofactor of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3, increasing the binding of phosphorylated signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 to FLG promoter, thereby inhibiting its transcription, and it inhibits the expression of transcription factor RUNX1 by signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 and signal transducer and activator of transcription 6, thereby downregulating LOR, keratin 1, and keratin 10. Thus, the elevated nuclear IL-33 in the epidermis of AD lesions may be involved in the pathogenesis of AD by inhibiting keratinocyte differentiation and skin barrier function.
Studies exploring the relationship between muscle fat content and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are scarce. Herein, we aimed to evaluate the association of muscle mass and fatty infiltration with biopsy-assessed NAFLD in patients with obesity.
At inclusion (n=184) and 12 months after a dietary intervention (n=15) or bariatric surgery (n=24), we evaluated NAFLD by liver biopsy, and skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) by CT (CT-SMI) or bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA-SMI). We developed an index to evaluate absolute fat content in muscle (skeletal muscle fat index [SMFI]) from CT-based psoas muscle density (SMFI
).
Muscle mass was higher in patients with NAFLD than in those without (CT-SMI 56.8±9.9 vs. 47.4±6.5cm
/m
, p <0.0001). There was no association between sarcopenia and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). SMFI
was higher in NASH ≥F2 and early NASH F0-1 than in NAFL (78.5±23.6 and 73.1±15.6 vs. 61.2±12.6, p <0.001). A 1-point change in the score for any of the individual c muscles is highly reflective of the severity of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in patients with morbid obesity. In particular, muscle fat content is strongly associated with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and decreases upon NASH improvement. These data indicate that muscle fatty infiltration could be a marker and possible pathophysiological contributor to NASH.

Here we examine whether anxiety is associated with persistent neural sensitivity to negative performance markers reflected in both the FRN and ERN (n = 273). Higher anxiety was associated with larger responses to both negative feedback and errors as the task progressed compared to those with lower anxiety particularly in women, suggesting that anxiety makes reactions to negative cues more persistent. Similar hypotheses were investigated for depression, which is associated with similar negative cognitive biases and deficits in reward-related processing, but results were mixed. Together, the findings identify variation over time-in-task as an overlooked dimension by which FRN and ERN may serve as a biomarker of anxiety but suggest that depression is not consistently related to performance monitoring.Many studies on concealed knowledge involve mock-thefts. The present study compares ERPs of participants concealing knowledge of a morally negative behavior (mock-theft) with ERPs of participants concealing knowledge of a morally positive behavior. Some participants (n= 33) stole a candy box out of an office, whereas others (n= 28) put the candy box into an office as a present. During a concealed information test, participants concealed knowledge of the candy box and a key they had seen in the office (probe stimuli) and honestly indicated not knowing similar irrelevant stimuli. P300s were enlarged for probe, compared to irrelevant stimuli in both conditions, revealing that probe stimuli were more salient than irrelevant stimuli regardless of their moral valence. Likewise, medial frontal negativities were enlarged for probe versus irrelevant stimuli in both conditions, indicating response conflicts when answering deceptively to probe items in both situations.Food choice is a multifaceted construct that is not solely guided by our internal incentives. In fact, sensory scientist, consumer psychologists, and marketers have demonstrated that external ambient cues, including background music, can influence myriads of subconscious consumer behaviors, effectively leading to increased sales of food and beverages. However, the vast majority of literature in on this topic has thus far been confined to monocultural field studies in which the underlying mechanisms of food choice are unexplored. We therefore studied the explicit and implicit effects of custom-composed soundtracks on food choices and eye-movements in consumers from both 'East' and 'West'. Firstly, based on the results from a pre-study (N = 396), we composed a 'healthy' and 'unhealthy' soundtrack. Subsequently, we recruited 215 participants from China (n = 114) and Denmark (n = 101) respectively for in an in-laboratory eye-tracking food choice paradigm. For each culture, half of the participants listened to the 'healthy' soundtrack and the other half to the 'unhealthy' soundtrack during the experiment. Chi-square tests of independence revealed that across cultures, the healthy (vs. unhealthy) soundtrack led to more healthy food choices. Similarly, the generalized linear mixed models showed that the healthy soundtrack induced more and longer fixations on healthy (vs. unhealthy) food. Finally, a multiple mediation analysis signified a partial mediation effect of sound on food choice through the mediators of fixation duration, fixation count, and revisit count. Our results indicate that, with strategically chosen soundscapes, it is possible to influence consumers' decision-making processes and guide their attention towards healthier foods, providing valuable knowledge for local as well as global food business.
