What is metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease?
Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is a newly defined condition that represents a shift in understanding liver disease in relation to metabolic health. It’s a major cause of liver issues globally and is linked to metabolic conditions like obesity, type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance. This new definition aims to be more inclusive and accurate in capturing a wider range of patients affected by liver disease associated with metabolic dysfunction.
