A multisociety Delphi consensus statement on new fatty liver disease nomenclature

Mary E. Rinella, Jeffrey V. Lazarus, Vlad Ratziu, Sven Francque et al.

Short summary

A Delphi consensus involving 236 experts and patient advocates recommends replacing NAFLD/NASH with 'metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease' (MASLD) and 'metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis' (MASH) to reduce stigma and improve identification. The new definition requires at least one cardiometabolic risk factor.
