Association of the C-reactive protein–triglyceride–glucose index with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease and long-term all-cause and cardiovascular mortality: evidence from two nationwide prospective cohort studies

CTI is a robust metabolic-inflammatory marker associated with MASLD and long-term all-cause and cardiovascular mortality across diverse populations. The strong mediating role of diabetes underscores the central importance of glycaemic dysfunction in cardiometabolic risk. As a readily obtainable index, CTI may aid in cardiometabolic risk stratification among individuals with MASLD.

Abstract

CTI is a robust metabolic-inflammatory marker associated with MASLD and long-term all-cause and cardiovascular mortality across diverse populations. The strong mediating role of diabetes underscores the central importance of glycaemic dysfunction in cardiometabolic risk. As a readily obtainable index, CTI may aid in cardiometabolic risk stratification among individuals with MASLD.
