BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a highly prevalent chronic liver condition. In the United States (US), the prevalence of NAFLD in men is higher than that in women. This study aimed to evaluate sex differences in long-term all-cause and cardiovascular (CV) outcomes in patients with NAFLD. METHODS AND RESULTS: We collected data from participants aged ≥18 years from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys, 2000-2014, which included seven continuous 2-year surveys. A US Fatty Liver Index score of ≥30 was used to define NAFLD. We used a weighted Cox proportional hazards model to compare sex differences in overall and CV mortality. The all-cause and CV mortality rates were obtained from the National Center for Health Statistics. From the selected 2627 participants with NAFLD, 65.4% were males. Men had a significantly higher all-cause mortality than women (12.4% vs. 7.7%; p = 0.005), and the risk of CV death was higher in women with NAFLD aged ≤60 years (adjusted hazard ratio 0.214, 95% confidence interval 0.053-0.869, p = 0.031). Men with a body mass index >30 kg/m and diabetes showed a higher risk of all-cause mortality. Sex differences in CV events were not apparent in the patients aged >60 years. CONCLUSION: Male sex was associated with all-cause mortality in all the age groups. However, CV death is influenced by age, with a higher risk in young and middle-aged women and no apparent difference in older patients.
