Study population text
This study will enroll adults aged 18-70 years with obesity (BMI \>30 kg/m²) and hepatic steatosis (CAP \>238 dB/m) confirmed within 3 months. Eligible participants must have metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) without other chronic liver conditions (e.g., viral hepatitis, cirrhosis complications like ascites, or MELD score \>12).
Inclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria
1. Liposuction and/or abdominoplasty, if performed more than 1 year before screening.
2. Laparoscopic gastric banding, if the band was removed more than 1 year before baseline liver biopsy and screening.
3. Intragastric balloon placement, if the balloon was removed more than 1 year before baseline liver biopsy and screening.
4. Duodenojejunal sleeve bypass, if the sleeve was removed more than 1 year before baseline liver biopsy and screening.
