According to a new Swedish study, a generally pregnant women of fatty liver disease are more likely to deliver their children early.

Research published from Karolinska Institute and in Eclinical Meedicine found that this increased risk is not only due to obesity.

Metabolism is known as a stytic liver disease (MASLD) associated with dysfunction, which is first called non-alcohol fatty liver disease, is a common disease globally. This type 2 is closely linked to conditions such as diabetes and excess weight and becoming more common among women in the child’s birth.

Using Sweden’s registry data, researchers saw 240 births from women with MASLD and compared them with 1,140 births from women in the general population.

They found that women with MASLD were three times the possibility of premature birth. Importantly, this risk remained even when compared with women suffering from overweight or obesity, who did not have liver disease.

“It indicates that it is not only about a high BMI (body mass index), the liver disease plays itself a role,” the lead researcher Carol A. Marxar said.

He said that pregnant women suffering from liver disease should be closely monitored to reduce the possibility of complications, and may need to update the current medical guidelines to reflect this risk.

The study also found that women with MASLD had 63% more likely to undergo a caesarean section, although it seems to be mainly due to high BMI levels.

On a positive note, researchers did not find any danger of birth defects or stilging in infants born to mothers with Massal.

Despite careful accounting for other health factors, researchers noted that some precious effects may still affect the results.
