Core Tip |
Current clinical evidence regarding the effect of statins on lowering the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) among patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is inconclusive. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of all the studies that evaluated the impact of statins on HCC occurrence in MASLD patients. The pooled data from four studies involving 291684 patients was included in the final analysis. Our findings show that statin use reduces the risk of HCC among patients with MASLD. The use of higher cumulative defined daily doses and lipophilic statins results in a significant reduction in HCC risk. |
