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 International Intestinal Failure Registry (IFR) is an initiative of the Intestinal Rehabilitation and Transplant Association (IRTA) and The Transplantation Society (TTS) and will be managed by these organizations. The primary objective of this project is to create a large international database of children with intestinal failure to characterize their management and outcome and guide the development of best practices and evidence-based management.
