Background And Aims: Myocardial infarction is a leading cause of death in individuals with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The two diseases share elevated very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) carrying both triglycerides and cholesterol; however, in NAFLD mainly triglycerides accumulate in liver cells while in myocardial infarction mainly cholesterol accumulates in the atherosclerotic plaque. We hypothesized that VLDL triglycerides preferentially associate with risk of NAFLD, while VLDL cholesterol preferentially associates with risk of myocardial infarction.

Background: The purpose of our study was to investigate the association between non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) progression using non-enhanced computed tomography (CT) and CT angiography (CTA).
Methods: Patients with AAA and age- and sex-matched healthy subjects who underwent abdominal CTA and non-enhanced CT examination between January 2015 and January 2023 from four hospitals were retrospectively analyzed. Patients with AAA were divided into progression (growth rate > 10 mL/year) and non-progression groups, as well as those with NAFLD and without NAFLD, based on abdominal CT results.
