Associations of MAFLD and MAFLD subtypes with the risk of the incident myocardial infarction and stroke
In conclusion, a diagnosis of MAFLD is associated with an increased risk of MI or stroke, and the assessment of MAFLD and its subtypes should be a component of the cardiovascular risk assessment.PMID:37586479 | DOI:10.1016/j.diabet.2023.101468

Screening for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease using liver stiffness measurement and its association with chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular complications in patients with type 2 diabetes.
CONCLUSION: - These results suggest that NAFLD and significant LF (as assessed by FibroScan) are very commonly seen in T2DM outpatients with no known liver disease attending a secondary-care diabetes service, and that increased LF is associated with a greater proportion of chronic vascular complications, especially CKD.
