Relationship between values of 7 NAFLD scales and different RCV scales in 219,477 Spanish workers

[eng] Introduction: Cardiometabolic diseases are highly prevalent and constitute the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is also very prevalent. The aim of this study is to assess the relationship between diferent NAFLD risk...

Sumario:[eng] Introduction: Cardiometabolic diseases are highly prevalent and constitute the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is also very prevalent. The aim of this study is to assess the relationship between diferent NAFLD risk scales and cardiovascular risk (CVR) scales. Material and methods: Descriptive, cross-sectional study in 219477 Spanish workers in which the relationship between NAFLD and liver fibrosis risk scales (FLI, HSI, ZJU, FLD, FSI, LAP and BARD score) and CVR scales (REGICOR, SCORE, DORICA, ERICE and vascular age) was assessed. Results: In our study there is a direct relationship between the increase in the values of the CVR scales and the increase in the risk values of NAFLD and hepatic fibrosis. The value of the CVR scales for predicting the presence of high risk values of NAFLD and liver fibrosis scales using ROC curves is not very high. Conclusions: There is a good relationship between the values of both types of scales although the predictive value is not good.
