The relationship between liver enzymes in the blood test and non-fatal cardiovascular disease events: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Puntos clave
To examine the relationship between liver enzymes and non-fatal cardiovascular disease events through a systematic review.
Conducted a systematic review of existing studies on liver enzymes and cardiovascular events.
Performed a meta-analysis to quantify the relationship between GGT levels and cardiovascular disease.
Evaluated diagnostic consistency across various studies.
Found a strong association between elevated GGT levels and incidence of cardiovascular diseases.
Results emphasize the potential of using liver enzymes as routine diagnostic tools.
Identified that GGT can serve as a reliable biomarker for cardiovascular risk assessment.
Resumen
There is a strong agreement on GGT for diagnosing cardiovascular diseases. These results can be applied as guidance for the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases using liver enzymes as routine blood tests.
