Fecha de publicación: | 2025 | Publicación seriada: | Nephron - Clinical Practice | Resumen: | Introduction: Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is a prevalent liver condition commonly associated with obesity, metabolic syndrome, and type 2 diabetes mellitus. It has also been linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular events and overall mortality. Recent studies have established pathophysiological connections between MAFLD and chronic kidney disease (CKD). This study aimed to determine the prevalence of MAFLD in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (ACKD), identify associated factors, and evaluate its impact on patient survival. Methods: A retrospective longitudinal cohort study was conducted with incident patients diagnosed with stage 4 or 5 CKD, not on dialysis, who initiated care for ACKD between 2011 and 2015. Clinical and laboratory data were collected, and the presence of MAFLD was estimated using the Fatty Liver Index (FLI). To assess the impact of FLI and other variables on survival, Kaplan-Meier univariate analysis and Cox regression multivariate analysis were performed, with follow-up through February 2024. Results: Among 367 patients, 60.2% had diabetes, and 70.8% had an FLI >= 60. Age and diabetes mellitus were significant factors associated with a higher likelihood of FLI >= 60. FLI was identified as an independent risk factor for decreased survival in patients with diabetes, after adjusting for other variables (HR, 1.015; 95% CI 1.004-1.027; p = 0.009). However, in non-diabetic patients, FLI was not a significant predictor of lower survival in multivariate Cox regression analysis. Conclusions: MAFLD is highly prevalent in patients with ACKD, particularly among those with diabetes, for whom it may represent an independent risk factor for reduced survival. This association was not observed in non-diabetic ACKD patients. These results suggest the need to design preventive and treatment strategies for MAFLD in this population. | URI: | https://accedacris.ulpgc.es/handle/10553/143897 | ISSN: | 1660-8151 | DOI: | 10.1159/000546525 | Fuente: | Nephron [ISSN 1660-8151], (2025) |
