The UK Supreme Court has ruled that Scotland can set a minimum price for alcohol, rejecting a challenge by the Scotch Whisky Association (SWA). https://t.co/bd8Aaf1VZT

Even more reason to diagnose it early. https://t.co/BMV5Wrxxpz

Would be a shame to let #WorldDiabetesDay pass without mentioning the related liver condition #NAFLD that affects 1 in 3 people, especially if diabetic, and can lead to cirrhosis: time for greater awareness @EASLnews @epos_nafld @LITMUS_IMI

[Dr MIF Shariff @MIFShariff]

This would be the single most effective measure to reduce young people from dying of liver disease in the UK. @LiverTrust https://t.co/mg2Pv6h7c0

UK-wide minimum alcohol price would save lives and ease pressure on NHS https://t.co/ZiDUMOmYDl

@CheungRonny @WestHertsNHS True for alcohol but viral hepatitis is now not even in the top 5 due to curing hep c and controlling hep b. NASH is growing.

[Dr MIF Shariff @MIFShariff]

Our top 2 causes of severe liver disease @WestHertsNHS are alcohol and fatty liver disease. This shows the changing face of hepatology.
