S5 - E21.1 - The Updated MASLD CPG: Introductions

Surfing the MASH Tsunami

Two of the co-authors of the upgraded MASLD Clinical Practice Guidelines, Elisabetta Bugianesi and Frank Tacke join Louise Campbell and Roger Green to discuss the guidelines.
The theme for the conversation is "introductions". First, the audience is introduced to co-authors Elisabetta Bugianesi and Frank Tacke, neither of whom has Surfed the Tsunami before. Both Elisabetta and Frank have unusual answers to the "one thing our audience would not expect about you if you didn't tell them" question, although in very different ways.

After this, the Surfers and guests begin the process of introducing us to the updating process. Frank Tacke describes when the idea to upgrade arose, where it came from, and the two mechanisms, co-authors and Delphi panels, that became the foundation for the upgrade.
