Trial summary

As a multisystem disease, metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is closely linked to the onset and progression of coronary heart disease (CHD). Ultrasonographic fatty liver indicator (US-FLI) is a semi-quantitative tool for evaluating the degree of hepatic steatosis. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Positive Association Between Ultrasonographic Fatty Liver Indicator and the Severity of Coronary Artery Disease

As a multisystem disease, metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is closely linked to the onset and progression of coronary heart disease (CHD). Ultrasonographic fatty liver indicator (US-FLI) is a semi-quantitative tool for evaluating the degree of hepatic steatosis. Our study aims to explore the relationship between US-FLI based on MAFLD and the severity of CHD.

Read the detailed description

204 patients who had invasive coronary angiography performed between July 2022 and December 2023 at the cardiology department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University were included in this study. Collect clinical information and abdominal ultrasound images from each patient. Hepatic steatosis which quantified by US-FLI was evaluated by the echo contrast between liver and kidney, posterior attenuation of ultrasound beam, areas of focal sparing, display of hepatic vessels, gallbladder wall and diaphragm. Fatty liver was diagnosed when US-FLI≥2. The severity of CHD was evaluated using the SYNTAX score (SS), and a total of 100 CHD patients were ultimately diagnosed. CHD patients were further divided into the low-risk group (SS ≤ 22) (54 cases) and the medium-high-risk group (SS≥23) (46 cases). Multivariate logistic regression model was used to assess the relationship between US-FLI and SS in patients with MAFLD. The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to determine the accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of US-FLI in predicting SS.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. SYNTAX score

    The complexity of coronary artery disease (CAD) is a predictor of cardiovascular events in patients with >50 % diameter stenosis as determined by SYNTAX score. The range of US-FLI is 0-8. Fatty liver was diagnosed when US-FLI ≥ 2.

    Measured: at baseline

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Tingqiu Wang (+8617815370539, w857683014@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

SYNTAX score (time frame: at baseline). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06541132, which also lists 4 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Aug 2024.
