Core Tip

Core Tip: The transition from non-alcoholic fatty liver disease to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) reflects a broader understanding of liver steatosis beyond obesity-related factors. Early recognition and diagnosis of MASLD are essential. Updated diagnostic protocols and exploration of novel therapeutic avenues focusing on metabolic dysregulation are critical for improving outcomes in MASLD management. Cross-disciplinary collaboration is key to addressing the complexities of this disease effectively.
