The moderating effect of dietary fiber intake on the association between sleep pattern and liver fibrosis in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease: a study from NHANES.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Insufficient nocturnal sleep was associated with a higher risk of fibrosis in patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Dietary fiber intake may improve the stimulate the secretion of sleep cytokines, inhibit the inflammatory pathway, contribute to regulating sleep disorders and alleviate liver fibrosis. The associations of dietary fiber intake, sleep patterns, with liver fibrosis remain unclear. The study aimed to explore the associations between dietary fiber, sleep, and liver fibrosis, as well as the moderating effect of dietary fiber intake between sleep patterns and liver fibrosis in MASLD patients.

Methods

Using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database spanning from 2017 to 2020, a
