Evaluation of the prevalence of MASLD, MASH and liver fibrosis in a Dutch bariatric cohort
MASLD/MASH prevalence and advanced fibrosis were lower than expected in this Dutch cohort. Capped MAF-5 demonstrated superior performance for fibrosis detection, while transient elastography and FIB-4 were less reliable. Further studies are needed to optimize NIT selection in bariatric populations.
