主要研究背景及目的

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the commonest chronic liver disease and affects a considerable proportion of the general population. NAFLD is independently associated with increased risk for cardiovascular events, particularly coronary heart disease. NAFLD also appears to increase multiple risk factors for ischemic stroke. We aim to investigate the associations between nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and its severity with ischemic stroke and combined vascular events in this study.

方法

Crude and multivariable Cox proportional hazards models.

结论

The severity of NAFLD is associated with a higher risk of future ischemic stroke events.

主要结果

During a median of 10.34 years of follow-up, we documented 3490 incident stroke cases among 79,905 participants. NAFLD was found in 24,874 (31.18%) participants. Relative to participants without NAFLD at the baseline, those with NAFLD had a 16% higher risk (95% CI 1.07-1.26) of developing ischemic stroke, after adjusted for confounding variables. The HRs for patients with mild, moderate and severe NAFLD were 1.15 (95% CI 1.05–1.25), 1.19 (95% CI 1.06–1.34), and 1.21 (95% CI 1.08–1.50), respectively.
