INTRODUCTION
• Metabolic associated fatty liver
disease (MAFLD)~(formerly
known as non-alcoholic fatty liver
disease (NAFLD)) is the principal
worldwide cause of liver disease
and afects nearly a quarter of the
global population, with differences
according to the diagnostic method,
age, sex and ethnicity.
• Prevalence has risen and placing
an enormous burden on
individuals and health care
systems.

Prevalence of NAFLD/MAFLD and NASH
• Globally, the total prevalence of MAFLD has been cited at 25%, while the prevalence of NASH has been estimated to range
from 1.5% to 6.45% with the global prevalence of NASH among persons with type 2 diabetes estimated at 37.3%.
• In Asia-Pacific region, prevalence of MAFLD is 29.62% ; 50.9 cases per 1000 person-years varies widely because of
genetic background, nutrition, physical activity, lifestyle, and sedentary behaviour.
• AASLD: >21 standard drinks per week in men and >14 standard drinks
per week in women over a 2-year period preceding baseline liver
histology.
• EASL: daily alcohol consumption 30 g for men and 20 g for women
• According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alco- holism (NIAAA), a
standard alcoholic drink is any drink that contains about 14 g of pure alcohol
NAFLD
• Excessive hepatic fat accumulation with IR
• Steatosis in >5% of hepatocytes*
• Exclusion of secondary causes and AFLD†
NAFL
• Pure steatosis NASH HCC
• Steatosis and mild lobular inflammation
*According to histological analysis or proton density fat fraction or >5.6% by proton MRS or quantitative fat/water-selective MRI;
†Daily alcohol consumption of ≥30 g for men and ≥20 g for women
• Globally, 54.3% of deaths due to cirrhosis and 72.7% of deaths due to hepatocellular
carcinoma (HCC) occurred in the Asia–Pacifc region in 2015.
• (CVD) followed by cancer and liver failure are the main causes of death in MAFLD
Vitamin E
• Vitamin E administered at a daily dose of 800 IU/day in nondiabetic adults,has been reported
to be effective in improving hepatic histology in patients with steatohepatitis may be considered
for this patient population.
• The development of prostate cancer is a possible concern of vitamin E
Statins
• did not show any benefecial effects on hepatic histology However, statins reduced cardiovascular
morbidity should be considered in all patients with MAFLD with hyperlipidemia.
Patients with MAFLD are at a high risk of hepatic fbrosis, HCC, cardiovascular events, and cancer.
Metabolic risk factor modifcation to improve long-term outcomes is an essential part of holistic
management.
