BACKGROUND: Previous studies have reported an association between metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and the risk of serious bacterial infections. However, the magnitude of the risk and whether this risk varies with the severity of MASLD remains uncertain. We performed a meta-analysis of observational studies to quantify the association between MASLD and serious bacterial infections requiring hospital admission.
METHODS: We systematically searched PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and Embase from database inception to 1 April 2024, using predefined keywords to identify studies examining the risk of serious bacterial infections among individuals with and without MASLD. MASLD was diagnosed using liver biopsy, imaging or International Classification of Diseases codes. Meta-analysis was performed using random-effects modelling.
RESULTS: We identified six cross-sectional and two prospective cohort studies with aggregate data on ~26.6 million individuals. MASLD was significantly associated with higher odds of serious bacterial infections (pooled random-effects odds ratio 1.93, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.44-2.58; I2 = 93%). Meta-analysis of prospective cohort studies showed that MAFLD was associated with an increased risk of developing serious bacterial infections (pooled random-effects hazard ratio 1.80, 95% CI 1.62-2.0; I2 = 89%). This risk further increased across the severity of MASLD, especially the severity of fibrosis (pooled random-effects hazard ratio 2.42, 95% CI 1.89-2.29; I2 = 92%). These results remained significant after adjusting for age, sex, obesity, diabetes and other potential confounders. Sensitivity analyses did not modify these findings. The funnel plot did not reveal any significant publication bias.
CONCLUSIONS: This meta-analysis shows a significant association between MASLD and an increased risk of serious bacterial infections requiring hospital admission.
