Advanced liver fibrosis measured by transient elastography predicts chronic kidney disease development in individuals with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
Aims/hypothesis Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are progressive chronic conditions that share important cardiometabolic risk factors and pathogenic mechanisms. We investigated the association between liver fibrosis measured by transient elastography (TE) an...

Zusammenfassung: | Aims/hypothesis
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are progressive chronic conditions that share important cardiometabolic risk factors and pathogenic mechanisms. We investigated the association between liver fibrosis measured by transient elastography (TE) and the risk of incident CKD in individuals with NAFLD.
Methods
A total of 5983 participants with NAFLD (defined as controlled attenuation parameter >222 dB/m) but without CKD who underwent TE between March 2012 and August 2018 were selected. The primary outcome was incident CKD, defined as the occurrence of eGFR |
