      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Not blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Basic scienece, Randomization description: To randomly allocate patients to the intervention and control groups, the “Random Allocation V.2” software (available for download at https://random-allocation-software.software.informer.com) will be used. In this study, block randomization with a block size of 4 will be employed. This means that patients will be randomly assigned to the intervention and control groups in blocks of 4. In this study, there are 20 participants, with 10 in the intervention group and 10 in the control group.</study_design>
      <phase>1-2</phase>
      <hc_freetext>Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.</hc_freetext>
      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Patients with Metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease  (MASLD) who, following a comprehensive education session about the composition, on average consume 0.5 milliliters of CAPRIDIN per kilogram of body weight daily for two months, along with their meals. CAPRIDIN is a Kondor Pharma (Canada) product that contains medium-chain fatty acids. These compounds are used in ketogenic diets and induce ketogenesis. Ketogenic-based treatments are employed in controlling metabolic-related diseases such as obesity. The intervention group is advised to limit carbohydrate sources in their daily diet. To reduce dietary carbohydrate sources, patients are given general instructions. Given that MASLD does not have a standard treatment and most therapeutic approaches are based on lifestyle changes and weight loss, there are no contraindications for using potential treatments such as cholesterol and triglyceride-lowering medications, according to the treating physician. If patients take these medications, the selection of the intervention and control groups will be equal in terms of medication use. Intervention 2: Control group: Patients with metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MASLD) who do not receive any CAPRIDIN-containing regimen. Given that MASLD does not have a standard treatment and most therapeutic approaches are based on lifestyle changes and weight loss, there are no contraindications for the use of potential treatments such as cholesterol and triglyceride-lowering medications, according to the treating physician.</i_freetext>
