We followed 846 RA patients with amean cumulative MTX dose of 2.48g and identified 51 patients presenting persistent transaminitis. According to multivariate logistic regression analysis, obesity (odds ratio [OR] 3.23, p<0.001), type 2 doabetes (OR 3.52, p=0.001), hypercholesterolemia (OR 2.56, p=0.004), and hyperuricemia (OR 3.52, p=0.019), which are recognized as risk factors for NAFLD, were independently associated with a risk of persistent aminitei. Among patients with persistent transaminitis, 42 showed fatty liver at ultrasonography. These patients had no evidence of alchoholic fatty liver, chronic viral hepatitis, autoimmune liver disease, or hereditary liver diseases. Biopsy specimens were obtained 32 patients, and we found that a NASH-like pattern was the most prevalent histological abnormality. These was no significant impact of MTX dose and duration on the histological severity.

Risk factors and histological findings are similar between NAFLD/NASH and liver injury during low dose MTX treatment for RA, which suggests a strong association between both entities.NASH/NAFLD may be an underlying condition causing persistent transaminitis in MTX-treated RA patients.The results of this study illustrate the need for monitoring liver injury in RA patients with NAFLD risk factors during MTX treatment.
