S5 - E22.5 - Healthy Livers, Healthy Lives: Watershed Moments To Come In MASLD Publlc Policy

Surfing the Nash Tsunami

In this closing conversation, Healthy Livers, Healthy Lives Chair Jeff Lazarus and Surfers Jörn Schattenberg, Louise Campbell and Roger Green discuss the upcoming United Nations General Assembly side event and consider ways listeners can support the "Healthy LIvers, Healthy Lives" coalition.Jeff discussed this impact on global care when the World Health Organization develops and releases a global health sector strategy. One key goal in public health is to lobby for a MASLD strategy. To that end, Healthy Livers, Healthy Lives is holding a side event at the United Nations General Assembly meeting in mid-September.  00:40:41 - Presenting MASLD to politicians One challenge in educating policymakers about MASLD is that people do not die from MASLD. One recent example: policymakers did not respond to the spread of SARS-CoV-2 until COVID-19 produced massive numbers of deaths. When asked, Jeff draws the chain from MASLD to MASH to cirrhosis and end-stage liver cancer and notes that we are already seeing MASLD as a leading cause of liver transplant. Roger suggests that Jeff reframe the issue to be about how many people die with MASLD, not from MASLD. Jeff believes this simple change may change the dialogue.  00:43:06 - How listeners can support this initiative Roger asks Jeff how listeners can support the Healthy Livers, Healthy Lives initiative. Jeff suggests that we all be careful to name the disease and let people know how easily MASLD can be identified and treated. For those who work in related areas or help set policy for their organizations, make sure that MASLD is included and, whenever possible, linked to diabetes, obesity, and other relevant metabolic conditions.   00:44:58 - LiverAIM and exit. As his closing comment, Jeff discusses LiverAIM, the largest European Commission-funded liver project in 26 years. (Jörn and Maja Thiele, who is leading the 100,000-person randomized clinical trial, discuss this in Episode 15.) Roger commits to producing an episode on LiverAIM this fall.   After Jeff departs, Jörn restates the importance of working with colleagues like Jeff who can systematically develop public health approaches and drive policy change from the top down. Roger agrees that a top-down approach can be extremely valuable, but may have limits in primary care. He suggests that professional organizations also need to bring allied health providers into the dialogue.

Healthy Livers, Healthy Lives Chair Jeff Lazarus joins Jörn Schattenberg, Louise Campbell and Roger Green to discuss how the coalition came into existence and to describe two initiatves aimed at increasing early screening.Jeff starts the conversation by describing the "bit of a bubble" in which the MASLD community lives: great news and lots of excitement within, but very limited exposure to related metabolic specialties (endocrinology, primary care, cardiology) and limited awareness among the people and organizations that shape public health policy.Jörn adds that Jeff has been working for the last 4-5 years to create a multi-stakeholder coalition to promote liver disease to relevant professional societies and public health policy shapers. Jeff notes that patient advocates, clinicians, and professional societies each have a pivotal role to play in advancing liver care, particularly MASLD care.Healthy Livers, Healthy Lives is a coalition of four major professional organizations (AASLD, ALEH, APASL, and EASL) along with other partners, like the Indian National Association for the Study of the Liver (INASL), to raise awareness within the liver field and also other metabolic specialties. Jeff describes it as  "really trying to be an open, transparent, engaging, ambitious and aspirational coalition" with a light structure and just a few areas of focus over the next year: World LIver Day on April 19, the World Health Assembly, and the UN General Assembly.Louise asks about efforts to promote early screening that will help patients get care earlier in their disease progression. Jeff mentions two: a project to "double the diagnosis" over the next 3-4 years, and another project to identify all the concomitant conditions with sufficient cost of disease to merit screening everyone in that group. The latter will provide the kind of data to which public policy makers respond best.

Healthy Livers, Healthy Lives Chair Jeff Lazarus joins Jörn Schattenberg, Louise Campbell and Roger Green to discuss why political will is so important in overcoming inertia and obstruction in global MASLD public health policy.Louise notes that she left NHS because of obstruction against earlier stage efforts to promote liver health and asks how to achieve these goals. To Jeff, it all depends on political will. He provides an example from viral hepatitis to prove his point.Roger asks how to motivate primary care practitioners who are overloaded with tasks they need to complete during short, overly scheduled patient visits.Jeff notes this is a challenge today, with a solution that lies in education that not only teaches about the disease but also stresses the cost of inaction. To Jeff, teaching FIB-4 to primary care and automating the algorithm to make it available in every electronic patient record is the minimum we should strive for today.Jörn focuses on the cost of inaction from a different direction: physicians who are afraid they will demoralize patients when they diagnose a disease with no available treatment. Jeff responds, "Do we not raise awareness because we don't have out-of-the-box solutions?" He goes on to describe different types of solution that might work for a patient, ranging from digital apps to linking patients to social agencies that can provide support and services. Jeff notes that "the field will need to change as we find more patients," due to increased demand on public health systems and social agencies.

Healthy Livers, Healthy Lives Chair Jeff Lazarus joins Jörn Schattenberg, Louise Campbell and Roger Green to discuss some of the specific structural challenges that confront global MASLD public policy, along with some promising local activities. Louise observes that, in her experience, primary care practitioners appreciate the support that specialist nurses can bring in educating providers about the disease and patients about how to better support themselves. Jeff responds that these are good findings as individual cases, but to make major changes in the field, we need large-scale, top-down innovations. One thing that, oddly, works in MASLD's favor is that most patients with advanced MASLD will have concomitant diseases requiring involvement with other specialties. Today, teams are looking at system issues to find the largest, most intractable structural problems so that solutions can emerge. After that, "we'll start to see bigger and faster improvements in the field." Jeff talks about several positive things happening in New York. First, he mentions a New York Times article about junk food and how manufacturers target aggressive marketing to poor and marginalized populations, with the net result that these populations have processed and ultra-processed foods making up a large share of their diets. Also, a "visionary" health commissioner is creating a program, Healthy NYC, with the goal of increasing life expectancy by reducing specific diseases.MASLD is not part of the effort today but with clinician support. we can get there over time. Earlier, Jeff had commented about the ease of implementing the FIB-4 test. Now, Roger raises the issue again, this time mentioning that SurfingMASH guests from ex-US markets have mentioned that ALT is not a standard test in their countries and asks Jeff if MASLD is making progress here. Jeff discusses the debate around this issue.

Healthy Livers, Healthy Lives Chair Jeff Lazarus joins Jörn Schattenberg, Louise Campbell and Roger Green to discuss the value of the updated EASL/EASD/EASO MASLD clinical practice guidelines and consider the role of Big Data in early MASLD screening. Roger asks Jeff whether he considers the updated MASLD CPG a step forward. Jeff praises the guidelines as "amazing" and suggests that one reason is that EASD and EASO are partners in drafting and promoting them.Roger's next question to Jeff addresses the idea that Big Data can provide a set of common variables that will outperform FIB-4 in predicting which patients are at high risk of MASLD or MASH, as Hannes Hagstrom discussed in Episode 17 this year. Jeff believes we can use more data than only the FIB-4 today but that, in the long run,we need better biomarkers to simplify the system. Jörn adds that having historical blood tests will allow for that kind of analysis, which should be superior to FIB-4. Jeff points out the challenge: not all variables are collected in each country. Bottom line: the solution must be simple and realistic to apply in practice in different countries.

This conversation starts and ends with thoughts from Michelle Long. Her first comment praises the expanded networking opportunities in the program, and her last comment focuses on the quality of the MASLD abstracts (really, all abstracts) and the importance of reviewing them in advance. Michelle starts by commenting on the networking sessions that EASL is sponsoring around the large consortia and other projects. "It really speaks to how... open this community is to exploring different ideas and getting people together." She notes that these sessions have particular value for two groups: people just getting into the field and those looking for a potential collaborator. Aleksander describes these sessions as helping to support the big consortia by tying them into the networking sessions. It also demonstrates the way that academia, companies and public funders align on pivotal projects.Roger comments that this is consistent with the generally high level of collegiality he sees in the hepatology community. In response, Aleksander states that the meeting will revisit EASL's mission and vision, which speaks to the many ways the organization can advance liver care.Roger asks Michelle what else she anticipates eagerly about the Congress. Her reply? "Don't sleep on the abstracts." She starts reviewing the abstract book and quickly highlights 75 of interest, and then states there are far more than just those 75 that have high-level value.  She notes that our fellow day Surfers, Aleksander, Hannes and Jörn, are authors of some of these. She describes the themes of linking and collaboration as coming through the abstracts. Finally, she recommends poster sessions as a place to dig into what lies behind the document for some pivotal pieces of research. Roger invites Michelle to choose one abstract from her 75 with Aleksander, Hannes and Jörn as authors so that the three can describe their work. The first abstract Michelle highlights has Aleksander as an author and is titled Longitudinal changes in liver stiffness measurements in a population-based screening cohort of 5,517 participants. Without revealing conclusions or interpretations, Aleksander describes the work his group did and then shifts focus to advocate that all listeners and attendees review abstracts extensively before coming to the meeting.The second abstract Michelle highlights has Hannes as an author and is titled The validation of the Baveno Rule of 5 in a real-life multicenter cohort of patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease. Like Aleksander, Hannes does not share data, but discusses how valuable a multicenter cohort can be in answering pivotal questions as compared to single-sample studies, "which cannot be replicated elsewhere."

Real estate investing is about to get much, much easier. Up until now, buying a property has seemed like a guessing game. Your real estate agent, inspector, and title company do their best to ensure you're buying the right home, but a few months, or weeks, into owning it, something breaks. But not something small—something huge. Now you're on the hook for tens of thousands in repairs, and this is just one of many things that could go wrong. What if there was a way to see EXACTLY what a home has been through since it was built? What if you could know about every past owner, system malfunction, renovation, repair, or addition to the home? And what if you could access it in seconds when analyzing deals? Sheila Fejeran and Teresa Grobecker from Consortia are building the technology that lets you do just that. Consortia is real estate on the blockchain. But before you start thinking crypto, know that this is something MUCH different. Consortia gives interested parties—lenders, agents, buyers, and more—access to information you would have NEVER known about a home. But that's not all. Consortia makes closing and lending quicker, so you can buy a house FAR faster than ever imagined. In This Episode We Cover: How the “CARFAX for properties” will make buying rentals painless The blockchain explained and how it will evolve the entire real estate industry Uncovering unknown property risks and how investors can use Consortia to buy even better deals Stopping wire fraud in its tracks and how blockchain could solve this HUGE payment problem Why you should NEVER, ever decline title insurance on a property purchase And So Much More!

At a time when America has lost its innovative edge, these consortia give government an opportunity to support industry while letting market forces work.Pre-competitive R&D consortia allow firms that are normally competitors in the market to work together on a common technology platform, sharing the resulting IP from which they can develop products to compete against each other. The collaboration pools resources and expertise, and provides a site at which public policy can constructively subsidize investment without “picking winners and losers.” Further ReadingAmerican Compass policy brief: Pre-Competitive R&D ConsortiaOn Research and Development (Willy Shih, American Compass)Pass the Chips, Please (Oren Cass, American Compass)A Guide to the Semiconductor Industry (American Compass)

Surfing the NASH Tsunami begins its year-end series to reflect on a momentous 2022 for NAFLD and Season 3 of the podcast. Leading this final conversation, Roger Green asks Jörn Schattenberg what has surfaced in the past several months with the various consortia, and particularly the retrospective analysis in NAIL-NIT. Jörn starts by commenting that non-invasive testing may have more momentum now than any other areas in research. He notes the increasing number of consortia and the role they play in shaping the scope of NITs. One impact has influenced change in the original focus of how NITs could replace biopsies. The shift explores how NITs can be validated by histology via reductions in ALT, MRI-PDFF and MRE metrics. For particular data of interest, Jörn goes back a year to a study from the NASH CRN that measured severity in terms of baseline histology and then produced ratios of decompensation at different fibrosis stages. He goes on to explain that data from the single-sponsor studies, such as the resmetirom MAESTRO data, produces faster results than the larger consortium studies. Louise Campbell asks whether or how we can measure the impact of patient behavior change on outcomes in these studies. Jörn notes that the researcher can include questionnaires and app-based assessments to accommodate these factors.At the bottom of the hour, Roger asks the group for final thoughts on changes envisioned for the next year specifically in terms of pathways. Each panelist provides thought-provoking responses to presage what is aligned to be another progressive year for the field in 2023.
