THE CONTRIBUTION OF NON-ALCOHOLIC FATTY LIVER DISEASE TO THE PROGRESSION OF ATHEROSCLEROSIS
Abstract
In the context of insulin resistance syndrome, which encompasses changes in lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, liver-related issues are now being closely examined alongside cardiovascular diseases. Our research aimed to evaluate the predictive importance of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) for identifying the likelihood of early atherosclerotic alterations in the carotid arteries. We discovered a connection between NAFLD and initial signs of atherosclerosis. By ranking prognostic factors that affect changes in the carotid artery wall, we've been able to develop a method for estimating individual atherosclerosis risk in people who are otherwise healthy. The practical value of our findings underscores the need for in-depth evaluation of individuals with NAFLD to identify risk factors that may contribute to the advancement of both liver and cardiovascular diseases.
