- Original description
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is common in Thailand and is strongly linked to metabolic risk factors such as obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death among patients with MASLD. Coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring is a widely used marker of subclinical coronary atherosclerosis. This study aims to evaluate the association between cardiovascular risk assessment tools and CAC scores in Thai patients with MASLD to improve cardiovascular risk stratification in this population.Read full original descriptionShow less
Association of Cardiovascular Disease Risk Assessment With Coronary Artery Calcium Score in Thai Patients With Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is common in Thailand and is strongly linked to metabolic risk factors such as obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death among patients with MASLD. Coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring is a widely used marker of subclinical coronary atherosclerosis. This study aims to evaluate the association between cardiovascular risk assessment tools and CAC scores in Thai patients with MASLD to improve cardiovascular risk stratification in this population.
Inclusion: Asymptomatic; Diagnosed MASLD by: Ultrasound showing fatty liver, or FibroScan CAP ≥ 248 dB/m; Available liver fibrosis assessment (FIB-4, APRI); Complete clinical and laboratory data required for cardiovascular risk assessment.
Exclusion: History of myocardial infarction, PCI, or CABG; History of stroke or peripheral arterial disease; History of heart failure, RV dysfunction, or pulmonary hypertension; Chronic hepatitis B or C; Autoimmune hepatitis, Wilson's disease, hemochromatosis; Advanced cancer; Alcohol intake >30 g/day (men) or >20 g/day (women); CKD stage 4-5 or ESRD; Pregnancy.
