Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a growing global health challenge, characterized by significant variability in progression and clinical outcomes. While the gut microbiome is increasingly recognized as a key factor in liver disease development, its role in disease progression and associated mechanisms remains unclear. This study systematically investigated the gut microbiota's role in MASLD and liver cirrhosis progression, focusing on individual bacterial strains, microbial community dynamics, and functional characteristics across different enterotypes.
