Quantitative liver stiffness and steatosis burden in subclinical carotid atherosclerosis: associations and incremental utility assessed by explainable machine learning

Whether quantitative liver steatosis and stiffness provide vascular-risk information beyond conventional cardiometabolic factors remains uncertain. We evaluated their multivariable-adjusted associations and incremental utility for identifying subclinical carotid atherosclerosis....
