Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is currently the most common cause of abnormal liver biochemistry and cryptogenic cirrhosis. Those with NAFLD have a higher prevalence of atherosclerosis, as shown by increased carotid artery intimal media thickness (CIMT). The aim of this study is to assess the co-incidence and prevalence between NAFLD and carotid atherosclerosis.

Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Amr Mahmmoud Ahmed"

  • - Amr Mahmmoud Ahmed's research primarily focuses on the intersection of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and cardiovascular health, particularly investigating the association between NAFLD and carotid atherosclerosis.
  • - His 2014 study published in the Journal of Egypt Society of Parasitology explores how increased carotid artery intimal media thickness (CIMT) in NAFLD patients may indicate a higher risk of atherosclerosis.
  • - The findings highlight the prevalence of atherosclerosis in individuals with NAFLD, suggesting a significant link that may necessitate further clinical attention and intervention strategies for these patients.
