Regional Inequities in Metabolic Dysfunction–associated Steatotic Liver Disease Burden and Care Quality in High-burden Settings: Implications for Health Systems

Caption

MASLD burden and care quality vary widely across regions. Low-QCI regions show higher mortality and disability, unfavorable metabolic risk profiles, and delayed detection patterns. Strengthening prevention, early case finding, fibrosis assessment, and treatment access may slow MASLD progression.
