Core Tip Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease is highly prevalent among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, amplifying risks of fibrosis, cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, and cardiovascular disease. The pathogenesis reflects overlapping mechanisms of insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, inflammation, and genetic predisposition. This narrative review integrates updated evidence on epidemiology, diagnostics, and therapeutics, emphasizing the roles of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors, and emerging agents. A multidisciplinary, personalized approach remains essential to reduce the burden of this increasingly recognized disease spectrum.
