Abstract

Metabolic Associated Fatty Liver Disease (MAFLD) is a chronic non-infectious condition characterized by structural changes in liver tissue. The primary manifestation of this pathology is the excessive accumulation of fat (mainly triglycerides) in liver cells—hepatocytes. As the disease progresses, inflammation (steatohepatitis), the formation of fibrous tissue, and in severe cases, cirrhosis may develop. In everyday language, MAFLD is [1,2] often referred to as “fatty liver” or hepatic steatosis. Although the disease is usually asymptomatic or mild in its clinical presentation, it is closely associated with metabolic disorders, significantly increasing the risk of cardiovascular complications. This, in turn, negatively affects the patient’s overall health, reducing both life expectancy and quality of life.
