claimThroughout this review, we use the term MASLD (metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease) as the current preferred nomenclature, while retaining the historical terms NAFLD and MAFLD when describing the evolution of the field or citing studies that employed those frameworks.

claimWhen Ludwig, Viggiano, McGill, and Oh introduced “non-alcoholic steatohepatitis” (NASH) in 1980, they described hepatic macrovesicular steatosis with lobular inflammation in patients whose alcohol consumption fell well below the threshold typically associated with alcoholic liver injury ().
