Spotlight on Dr. Sae Kyung Joo: Advancing Precision in MASLD Diagnosis through Sex-Specific Cutoffs
As the global medical community
continues to refine diagnostic accuracy in metabolic
dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), the work of
leading gastroenterologists like Dr. Sae Kyung Joo stands out. We are
honored to feature Dr. Joo as a distinguished speaker at the 15th
World Probiotics & Gut Health Conference, taking place from December
17–19, 2025, at Novotel Al Barsha, Dubai, UAE, and online.
Representing the Seoul National
University College of Medicine, South Korea, Dr. Joo brings a wealth of
clinical expertise and research leadership in hepatology, metabolic disorders,
and sex-specific disease profiling.
Understanding
a Critical Gap in MASLD Diagnosis
Dr. Sae Kyung Joo’s featured talk,
“Impact
of Sex-Specific Cutoffs on Reducing Missed Advanced Fibrosis in Women with
MASLD,”
addresses one of the most urgent challenges in liver disease diagnostics: gender
disparity in detecting advanced fibrosis.
Recent findings suggest that
universal non-invasive fibrosis cutoffs may inadvertently underestimate
disease severity in women, delaying timely intervention and potentially
increasing long-term complications. Dr. Joo’s research highlights how sex-specific
thresholds can dramatically reduce missed diagnoses, offering a more
equitable and accurate approach to gut
health and MASLD care.
Why
This Research Matters
- Improved Diagnostic Precision: Introducing sex-based criteria enhances early
detection of fibrosis.
- Personalized Care:
Tailored cutoffs align with the future of probiotics and gut health research.
- Better Patient Outcomes: Early identification leads to timely treatment
strategies.
- Bridging Gender Gaps:
Dr. Joo’s work equips clinicians with tools to reduce gender bias in liver
disease diagnostics.
