Association between life's essential 8 and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease among US adults.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease(MASLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease. Clinical evidences have demonstrated the link between MASLD and the increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) development. We aimed to investigate the relationship between Life's Essential 8 (LE8), an enhanced approach to assessing cardiovascular health(CVH), and MASLD.

Methods

Data were extracted from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) in 2017-2020 cycles. MASLD was assessed by the latest diagnostic criteria. LE8 scores (range 0-100) were obtained from measurements based on American Heart Association definitions, divided into health factor and health behavior scores.
