AbstractA skeletal muscle strength (SMS) decline is associated with metabolic diseases, but whether SMS also declines with chronic kidney disease (CKD) in individuals with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is uncertain. This study examined the associations between SMS and the risk of CKD in MASLD population.

BACKGROUND: With the rising global prevalence of fatty liver disease related to metabolic dysfunction, the association of this common liver condition with chronic kidney disease (CKD) has become increasingly evident. In 2020, the more inclusive term metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) was proposed to replace the term non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

Several studies have reported a significant association between the PNPLA3 rs738409 G allele and chronic kidney disease. Epidemiological evidence about a direct effect of the PNPLA3 rs738409 G allele on the risk of developing kidney dysfunction is limited. PNPLA3 is expressed in renal podocytes, pericytes, and proximal tubule cells, suggesting that the mutant PNPLA3 protein is involved in developing renal steatosis and fibrosis.
