Abstract Background and Aim The introduction of the latest nomenclature, metabolic associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), proposed by multi‐society without Asian society consensus statement, aims to redefine diagnostic criteria for fatty (MAFLD). However, its effect on epidemiology in Asia remains unclear. Method We conducted a population‐based cross‐sectional survey using multistage stratified random sampling participants from Guangzhou, representative area China (ChiCTR2000033376)....
