In one study that examined people over 15 years, 11% of those with MASH developed cirrhosis as compared to less than 1% of people with MASLD. [126] Other estimates have shown that MASLD and MASH were found to worsen with cirrhosis in respectively 2–3% and 15–20% of the people over a 10–20 year period. [13]

Patients with such mutations are congenitally insensitive to pain and lack other neuropathies. There are three mutations in SCN9A: W897X, located in the P-loop of domain 2; I767X, located in the S2 segment of domain 2; and S459X, located in the linker region between domains 1 and 2. This results in a truncated non-functional protein.
