Efficacy and Safety of GLP-1 Receptor Agonists in Patients With Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) poses a major global health challenge. glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) have shown potential therapeutic benefits for MASLD patients, including improvements in liver function, inflammation, and fibrosis. This study aims to systematically review and meta-analyze randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to evaluate the efficacy and safety of GLP-1RAs in MASLD patients, focusing on hepatic outcomes, cardiovascular outcomes, anthropometric measurements, and mortality.
