Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease(MASLD) is one of the most common causes of chronic liver disease in the developed world. It is a spectrum of disease, ranging from hepatic fat accumulation without inflammation to steatohepatitis, fibrosis, cirrhosis, and end-stage liver disease. MASLD is considered the hepatic manifestation of metabolic syndrome and is associated with obesity, dyslipidemia, and type 2 diabetes mellitus. The diagnosis of MASLD is based on [the] exclusion of other etiologies of steatotic liver disease, such as alcohol use, and supportive laboratory tests and imaging. 4, record 1, English, - metabolic%20dysfunction%2Dassociated%20steatotic%20liver%20disease
