Clinical and genetic risk factors for progressive fibrosis in metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease
1 Jul 2024
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Fibrosis-4 (FIB4) is a recommended noninvasive test to assess hepatic fibrosis among patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Here, we used FIB4 trajectory over time (ie, "slope" of FIB4) as a surrogate marker of liver fibrosis progression and examined if FIB4 slope is associated with clinical and genetic factors among individuals with clinically defined MASLD...
