  • The study investigates how well non-invasive tests (NITs) can diagnose metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and fibrosis in patients over 50 with Type 2 Diabetes and obesity.
  • Out of 124 patients, a significant portion was found to have either early MASH or MASH with significant fibrosis, with the OWLiver Panel accurately classifying 86.1% of cases.
