Fibrosis and Metabolic Markers in Relation to PREVENT Cardiovascular Risk in MASLD

Fibrosis Versus Metabolic Risk in MASLD: Age-Adjusted Associations With PREVENT Cardiovascular Risk

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 28 Aug 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This retrospective observational study evaluates the relationship between non-invasive liver fibrosis and metabolic markers and estimated cardiovascular risk in adults with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). The primary objective is to assess the association between the Fibrosis-4 index (FIB-4) and 10-year cardiovascular disease risk estimated using the American Heart Association PREVENT equations, with particular attention to the effect of age on this association. Secondary analyses evaluate the Fibrosis-3 index (FIB-3), triglyceride-glucose index (TyG), and liver stiffness measurement (LSM) in relation to PREVENT-estimated risks of cardiovascular disease, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, and heart failure.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Lab values

  • Alternative causes of chronic liver disease. One or more required PREVENT input variables outside the supported ranges: systolic blood pressure 90-200 mmHg, total cholesterol 130-320 mg/dL, HDL cholesterol 20-100 mg/dL, eGFR 15-140 mL/min/1.73 m², or BMI 18.5-39.9 kg/m².
    • Prior cardiovascular disease, defined as a history of stroke, coronary artery disease, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, or peripheral arterial disease.

Who the study is looking for

  • Adults aged 30 to 79 years. Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), defined by hepatic steatosis on ultrasonography together with at least one cardiometabolic risk factor.
    • Clinical data available for calculation of the PREVENT cardiovascular risk estimates within the supported input ranges.
