Fatty liver adds information to heart and liver risk forecasts

Having both fatty liver and advanced heart–kidney–metabolic disease was linked to hazard ratios of 2.33 for cardiovascular events and 5.09 for liver events, compared with…Having both fatty liver and advanced heart–kidney–metabolic disease was linked to hazard ratios of 2.33 for cardiovascular events and 5.09 for liver events, compared with neither.

A gene variant amplifies alcohol's link to heart dysfunction

People with the gene variant had 2- to 2.5-fold higher odds of heart dysfunction despite drinking less alcohol, 7.6 against 16.7 grams per day.People with the gene variant had 2- to 2.5-fold higher odds of heart dysfunction despite drinking less alcohol, 7.6 against 16.7 grams per day.

Extreme 'good' cholesterol not tied to excess deaths after matching

Men above 100 mg/dL had no higher death rate than matched men with average levels; the hazard ratio, a relative measure, was 0.98.Men above 100 mg/dL had no higher death rate than matched men with average levels; the hazard ratio, a relative measure, was 0.98.

Blood cells with dense versus sparse cholesterol particles sit beside equal groups of upright figures and matching liver shapes.
