Highlighting the relevance of a multidisciplinary approach in metabolic-asociated steatotic liver disease (MASLD)

Abstract

Adherence to the Mediterranean diet and engagement in exercise have been shown to ameliorate and potentially reverse MASLD. The hepatologist plays a pivotal role in diagnosis, assessment of liver comorbidities, and disease staging, emphasizing lifestyle modification and tailored therapy. Nutritionists are vital in dietary interventions, while specialists in sports medicine are essential for overcoming sedentary lifestyles, requiring fitness evaluations to customize exercise prescriptions. Psychological support addresses social and adherence challenges, enhancing patient management. Additionally, metabolic medicine experts are crucial for managing associated comorbidities, including cardiovascular risk factors and type 2 diabetes.
