Article Synopsis
  • A meta-analysis was conducted to explore the relationship between primary hypothyroidism and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), highlighting uncertainties about the risk level associated with MASLD severity.
  • The study analyzed data from 28 observational studies involving approximately 76.5 million individuals, revealing that primary hypothyroidism significantly increases the risk of prevalent MASLD and worsened conditions like steatohepatitis or advanced fibrosis.
  • The findings suggest a strong association between hypothyroidism and both the occurrence and severity of MASLD, but the risk of developing MASLD over time was less conclusive with marginal significance.
