CVD is the leading cause of death among individuals with MASLD, a risk factor for liver cancer. In Southern Arizona, CVD and cancer (including liver and gastric cancer) are among the leading causes of death for Mexican-origin adults.1 Given Mexican-origin adults' disproportionate burden of CVD-related mortality37 and higher rates of MASLD compared to other ethnic/racial groups; we urgently need to develop contextually tailored strategies for management of CVD risk factors and outcomes. Thus, the purpose of this study is to examine the acceptability and feasibility of a community health worker (CHW)-led intervention aimed to increase cardiovascular risk awareness and promote lifestyle modifications among Mexican-origin adults with Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD) in the Southern Arizona region. The proposed project has the potential to improve health outcomes for this vulnerable population and contribute to the ACS-CHERC's overarching goal of improving health equity for Hispanic communities and family caregivers.
