| Core Tip |
The recent study by Hyatt et al investigated the prevalence and associations between metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), poor sleep, and life quality in patients with human immunodeficiency virus. To further explore the potential causal relationship between specific sleep traits and MASLD, we conducted a Mendelian randomization analysis, which demonstrated that sleep apnea significantly increases the risk of MASLD (P = 0.014), whereas no causal associations were found for other sleep traits (P > 0.05). These findings complement and extend those of Hyatt et al, providing additional insight into the associations between MASLD and sleep. |
