Increased prevalence and risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in individuals with Type 1 diabetes and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease
Main finding · Prevalent ASCVDResult — go to the resultAdjusted odds ratio 4.26 95% CI 1.79–10.11Authors' conclusion
MASLD is associated with both an increased prevalence of ASCVD and an increased calculated risk of fatal/nonfatal ASCVD in people with T1D.
