With the recent change in terminology to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and MASH and the new cardiometabolic criteria, clinical practice has shifted to incorporate screening of more patients for MASLD/MASH. Employing NITs is essential to identifying patients at high risk for MASH and further disease progression, as well as for selecting patients for the first-ever approved MASH therapy, resmetirom. Cardiometabolic comorbidities are common in these patients, and clinicians must be prepared to manage them, often using GLP-1 RAs. After a didactic background on MASH, attendees will compete in a CME Jeopardy game. Teams will be led by Drs. Mazen Noureddin and Kymberly Watt and the game will be moderated by Dr. Sonal Kumar. Topics covered will include nuances of diagnosis and staging using NITs, selecting candidates for resmetirom, and optimal management strategies, such as GLP-1 RAs, for the management of common cardiometabolic comorbidities. Join us for this fun, exciting, and competitive program and see if you have what it takes to win!
