Characterizing plasma lipid species in metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease in persons with type 1 diabetes.

ABSTRACT: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the hepatic manifestation of metabolic syndrome. Hepatic lipotoxicity and inflammation are two key factors driving progression of steatosis to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). The presence of MASH increases the risk of cardiovascular events, cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and non-liver malignancies. Although MASLD and lipid species have been extensively examined in persons with type 2 diabetes, much less is known in type 1 diabetes. We examined the association of key lipid species with MASLD in individuals with type 1 diabetes. We designed a cross-sectional study of 30 participants with type 1 diabetes recr1uited from our institutional diabetes clinics. All participants had fasting blood
