Abstract in brief

  • TMAO, a metabolite produced by gut bacteria from diet, is linked to increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and related complications, but changes in kidney function may influence this association.
  • Studies show mixed results; some suggest high TMAO levels predict cardiovascular events, while others indicate renal health significantly impacts this link, making causality unclear.
  • The mechanisms by which TMAO might promote cardiovascular risk include altering cholesterol metabolism, promoting inflammation, damaging blood vessel lining, and activating platelets, but more research is needed to confirm if TMAO is a direct cause of ASCVD or just a marker.]
