Abstract

Introduction: Metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is a common comorbidity in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and is associated with adverse hepatic and metabolic outcomes. Early detection in primary care is limited by restricted access to imaging, highlighting the need for practical non-invasive screening tools. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of MAFLD using the Fatty Liver Index (FLI) and identify associated factors among T2DM patients in Kuantan, Pahang.
