ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
We aimed to investigate whether there was a joint effect of fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) or interaction on the incidence of cardiovascular diseases based on a community-dwelling population.METHODS:
Serum FGF21 levels were determined using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent method. NAFLD was diagnosed via ultrasonography. Multivariable-adjusted cox proportional hazards models were used to assess the joint effects of FGF21 and NAFLD on the major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE).RESULTS:
A total of 1194 participants were enrolled in the final analysis. The multivariable-adjusted hazard ratio (HR) of MACE was 1.84 (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.18-2.86) in participants with diagnosed NAFLD at baseline, compared with those without NAFLD at baseline. The multivariable-adjusted HRs of MACE across quintiles of serum FGF21 levels at baseline were 1.00, 1.48 (95%CI 0.68-3.21), 2.01 (95%CI 0.98-4.13), 1.94 (95%CI 0.94-4.02) and 2.14 (95%CI 1.03-4.44) respectively. Participants with high FGF21 levels and NAFLD at baseline showed the highest risk of MACE with a significant interaction between the presence of NAFLD and serum FGF21 levels.CONCLUSIONS:
Both FGF21 and NAFLD were associated with MACE, while the association between FGF21 and MACE may be interacted by the presence of NAFLD at baseline.Palavras-chave
