A multisociety consensus group proposed a new nomenclature for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Although patients with nonalcoholic fatty (NAFLD) are expected to be reclassified as MASLD under the nomenclature, concordance between and NAFLD remains unclear. Moreover, waist circumference could adjusted by ethnicity diagnosing MASLD; however, there limited data on optimal in Japanese population.
