A random sample of 2456 adult residents of the city of Białystok, Poland, was analyzed. Anthropometric, epidemiologic, clinical, and lifestyle‑related parameters were assessed.

MASLD was predominantly associated with obesity and diabetes mellitus, whereas MetALD showed a higher prevalence of arterial hypertension and dyslipidemia. Significant liver fibrosis was more frequent in MetALD (17.8%) and MASLD (15.6%), as compared with the controls (5.1%; P <0.001 and P = 0.005, respectively). The highest cirrhosis rates were observed in 4.44% of the MetALD participants, 0.58% of the MASLD patients, and 0.12% of the controls (P = 0.001).
