Cardiovascular risk of metabolic‐dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in Mexican pediatric population
MASLD is strongly associated with subclinical atherosclerosis and cardiometabolic dysregulation in children. The progressive increase in predictive accuracy across models underscores the importance of a multifactorial approach to cardiovascular risk assessment. Early subclinical cardiovascular findings are detectable in children with MASLD, supporting the rationale for early risk stratification and further research in this population.
