MASLD affects nearly one in three adults worldwide, yet many patients remain undiagnosed until advanced fibrosis or cirrhosis develops. So, which patients should clinicians actually be screening? When is a FIB-4 enough, and when should we move to elastography or hepatology referral? And are we finally entering an era where we can meaningfully treat MASH?In this Beyond Journal Club episode, we unpack the evolving language of steatotic liver disease and take a close look at two major trials: MAESTRO-NASH studying resmetirom, the first FDA-approved liver-directed therapy for MASH, and ESSENCE, evaluating semaglutide in biopsy-confirmed disease.Along the way, we explore what these biopsy-based histologic endpoints really mean, why placebo responses were surprisingly high, and whether improvements in steatohepatitis and fibrosis will ultimately translate into better clinical outcomes for patients.This episode is for clinicians trying to understand where the field is headed, which patients deserve closer attention, and how metabolic liver disease is increasingly becoming part of everyday primary care and hospital medicine. 🔹Sponsor: Oakstone CMEUse the code "CORE325" for 25% off: https://www.coreimpodcast.com/MKSAP  🔹Transcript and Shownotes:  01:57 | Understanding MASLD as a Systemic Disease 05:45 | MASLD vs MASH vs Met-ALD: Spectrum Steatotic Liver Disease 08:55 | How to Screen for Fibrosis (FIB-4 & FibroScan) 16:15 | Lifestyle Treatment & Weight Loss Targets 19:00 | ESSENCE Trial: Semaglutide for MASH 21:58 | MAESTRO-NASH Trial: Resmetirom 27:27 | Future Treatments for MASH 30:51 | Key Takeaways for Clinicians  Tags: CoreIM, Internal Medicine, Medical Education, Hepatology, Fatty Liver Disease, Metabolic Dysfunction Associated Steatohepatitis, Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease, Liver Fibrosis Find the best disability insurance for you: https://www.patternlife.com/disability-insurance?campid=497840 Our Sponsors: * Check out CovePure and use my code CovePure.com/coreim for a great deal: https://covepure.com * Check out ElevenReader and use my code PODCAST for a great deal: https://elevenreader.io * Check out FIGS and use my code FIGSRX for a great deal: https://wearfigs.com * Check out Quince for high-quality clothes with affordable pricing and use code quince.com/coreim * Get 15% off Branch Basics with the code COREIM at https://branchbasics.com/COREIM #branchbasicspod Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Can AI manage post-op atrial fibrillation or does medicine still require human judgment? Using post-op AFib as a case study, we explore where algorithms help, where evidence falls short, and why clinical context still matters. When evidence is incomplete, and every patient is different, can AI truly practice medicine or only assist the clinicians who do?
