ABSTRACT
Few researches have looked at the relationship between nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) at the time of admission and the long-term outcomes of patients suffering from acute ischemic stroke (AIS). We aimed to probe the relationship between NAFLD risk evaluated by NAFLD indices and long-term endpoints, along with the prognostic value of merging NAFLD indices with established risk markers for the prognosis of AIS patients. The fatty liver index (FLI) and the Hepatic steatosis index (HSI) were used to evaluate NAFLD risk in the Third China National Stroke Registry (CNSR-III), a large, prospective, national, multicenter cohort registry study. NAFLD was defined as FLI ≥35 for males and FLI ≥ 20 for females, as well as HSI>36. Death or major disability (modified Rankin Scale score ≥3) were the primary outcomes following the beginning of a stroke. On patient outcomes, the prognostic performance of two objective NAFLD parameters was evaluated. NAFLD was detected in 32.10-51.90% of AIS patients. After 1-year, 14.5% of the participants had died or suffered a severe outcome. After controlling for known risk factors, NAFLD was associated with a modest probability of adverse outcome (odds ratio,0.72[95% CI, 0.61-0.86] for FLI; odds ratio,0.68[95% CI, 0.55-0.85] for HSI). The inclusion of the two NAFLD indicators in the conventional prediction model was justified by the integrated discrimination index, continuing to increase the model's overall predictive value for long-term adverse outcomes. NAFLD risk was linked to a lower risk of long-term death or major disability in people with AIS. The predictive value of objective NAFLD after AIS was demonstrated in our study.
