Despite this, routine screening is rare, leading to missed detection and intervention. Advanced fibrosis, observed in 15% of cases, increases the risk of liver and cardiovascular complications. This article addresses the burden of MASLD and the need for systemic screening and patient-centred care to improve outcomes and reduce Canada’s disease burden.</span></p> Akshay Jain, MD, FRCPC, FACE, CCD, ECNU, DABOM Copyright (c) 2025 Canadian Diabetes & Endocrinology Today https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://CanadianDiabetesAndEndocrinologyToday.com/article/view/3-s01-Jain Mon, 15 Dec 2025 00:00:00 +0000
