To improve the diagnosis of metabolic dysfunction-steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in primary care, this study will develop, test, and internally validate a predictive model for MASLD in a cross-sectional sample of patients with no known chronic liver disease. Patient metabolic variables, like weight, blood pressure, and blood sugar will be considered for inclusion in the model, and ultrasound-based vibration-controlled elastography will be used for determining the outcome. This work will dramatically enhance MASLD diagnosis and management in primary care.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of pegozafermin compared to placebo to see how well pegozafermin might improve liver fibrosis after 52 weeks.
The main goal of this study is to evaluate how well taking oral elafibranor 80 mg daily works, compared to a placebo, in reducing or preventing the occurrence of death, liver transplant, worsening of liver disease, and liver disease-related complications in adults with PBC.
