Metabolism-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is a multifaceted that involves complex interactions between various organs, including the gut and heart. It defined by hepatic lipid accumulation related to metabolic dysfunction, obesity, diabetes. Understanding intricate interplay of gut–liver–heart crosstalk crucial for unraveling complexities MAFLD developing effective treatment prevention strategies. The gut–liver participates in regulation inflammatory processes through host–microbiome interactions. Gut microbiota have been associated with development progression MAFLD, its dysbiosis contributes insulin resistance, inflammation, oxidative stress. Metabolites derived from enter systemic circulation influence both heart, resulting axis playing an important role MAFLD. Furthermore, growing evidence suggests endothelial inflammation may contribute increased risk cardiovascular (CVD). Additionally, dysregulation metabolism also lead cardiac dysfunction heart failure. Overall, molecular pathways CVD patients This review emphasizes current understanding as foundation optimizing patient outcomes

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a significant public health concern worldwide with complex etiology attributed to behavioural, environmental, and genetic causes. The prevalence of NAFLD estimated be 32.4% constantly rising. Global data, however, indicate considerable heterogeneity among studies for both incidence. Identifying variables that affect the epidemiological measures essential all stakeholders, including patients, researchers, healthcare providers, policymakers. Besides helping research on etiology, it helps identify individuals at risk disease, which in turn will outline focus preventive help fittingly tailor individualized treatments, targeted prevention, screening, or treatment programs. Several suggest differences severity by race ethnicity, may linked lifestyle, diet, metabolic comorbidity profile, background, others. Race/ethnicity as can provide valuable information regarding biological people similar cultural, dietary, geographical backgrounds.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), also named metabolic dysfunction-associated (MAFLD), is a progressive spectrum encompassing simple steatosis, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), fibrosis, and cirrhosis. It clinically silent leading to multiple extra-hepatic complications/comorbidities. an independent risk factor for cardiovascular (CVD), increasing susceptibility hypertension, atherosclerosis, arrhythmia, myocardial dysfunction, cardiac valve deformation, venous thrombosis through putative mechanisms including systemic inflammation, endothelial oxidative stress, insulin resistance, altered lipid metabolism. Eventually, it increases the CVD prevalence, incident, fatality, contributing huge health care burden. In fact, becoming cause of mortality among patients with NAFLD. Other cardiometabolic factors coexisting NAFLD may accelerate synergistic development CVD, which warrants assessment targeting diabetes mellitus (DM), obesity, dyslipidemia be integral part care. Monitoring biomarkers (glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin [HbA1c], insulin, lipids, lipoproteins), (CV) scores (American College Cardiology/American Heart Association [ACC/AHA] or Framingham), subclinical atherosclerosis (coronary artery calcification [CAC], carotid intima-media thickness [CIMT], plaque) are recommended prediction reduction.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) are emerging as the leading causes of worldwide. These conditions can lead to cirrhosis, cancer, failure, other related ailments. At present, transplantation remains sole treatment option for end-stage NASH, a rapidly growing socioeconomic burden. Kupffer cells (KCs) dominant population macrophages that reside in liver, playing crucial role innate immunity. Their primary function includes phagocytosing exogenous substances, presenting antigens, triggering immune responses. Moreover, they interact with during pathogenesis NAFLD, this crosstalk may either delay or exacerbate progression. Stimulation by endogenous signals triggers activation KCs, resulting expression various inflammatory factors chemokines, such NLRP3, TNF-α, IL-1B, IL-6, contributing cascade.
