Metabolic Dysfunction Associated Liver Disease in Patients Undergoing Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography

In this single-center cross-sectional study on patients undergoing coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA), we assessed the prognostic significance of metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), metabolic syndrome (MetS), and CCTA-derived parameters for predicting major...

description In this single-center cross-sectional study on patients undergoing coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA), we assessed the prognostic significance of metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), metabolic syndrome (MetS), and CCTA-derived parameters for predicting major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). Over a mean follow-up of 26.9 months, 2038 patients were analyzed, with 361 (17.7%) experiencing MACE. MASLD was associated with a higher MACE incidence (25.90% vs. 14.71% without MASLD, <i>p</i> < 0.001). Cox regression revealed significant associations between MASLD, coronary calcium score (CCS), number of plaques (NoP), epicardial fat volume (EFV), and MACE, with hazard ratios of 1.843, 1.001, 1.097, and 1.035, respectively (<i>p</i> < 0.001 for all). A composite risk score integrating CCS, NoP, EFV, and MASLD demonstrated superior predictive value for MACE (AUC = 0.948) compared to individual variables (<i>p</i> < 0.0001 for all). In conclusion, MASLD is linked to an elevated risk of MACE, and a comprehensive risk-scoring system incorporating imaging and clinical factors enhances MACE prediction accuracy.
