Construction norms for the tiered diagnosis and treatment and standardized management center of metabolic-associated fatty liver disease

This guideline aims to provide systematic guidance for establishing "Metabolic-Associated Fatty Liver Disease (MAFLD) Tiered Diagnosis, Treatment, and Standardized Management Centers" at various levels of medical institutions. Faced with the severe challenges of high prevalence and low diagnosis and treatment rates for this disease, the guidelines clarify the background, necessity, tiered setting standards, multidisciplinary collaboration models, and clinical diagnosis and treatment pathways for center construction. The core is to establish a standardized management framework and integrate multidisciplinary resources to achieve standardized management of the entire process, from screening, diagnosis, and treatment to long-term follow-up, thereby improving the overall prevention and control level in China and building a chronic disease prevention and control network and data platform for MAFLD.
