Abstract. Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NAS) is a chronic disease characterized by the accumulation of excess fat in liver cells, the progression of which can lead to serious hepatocellular pathologies, including fibrosis and cirrhosis. In recent years, modern approaches to the pathophysiology, risk factors, and diagnostic methods of this disease have been developed. The main risk factors include metabolic syndrome, overweight, diabetes, and lifestyle-related risks. Although treatment strategies are mainly focused on lifestyle changes, diet, and increased physical activity, the effectiveness of new agents is being studied in pharmacotherapy and clinical trials. Early detection of the disease and individualized treatment plans can significantly improve the long-term prognosis of patients. At the same time, scientific research is aimed at determining the role of genetic and biological markers in the management of NASH.
