What the engine reports

Detected clinical pattern

Pattern Meeting the 2023 MASLD Criteria

Steatosis with 2 cardiometabolic criterion/criteria and alcohol in range. Fibrosis risk by non-invasive tests: indeterminate.

  • Alcohol: Alcohol 5 g/day · MASLD range
  • Fibrosis risk: Fibrosis risk · indeterminate

Why this pattern was identified

  • MASLD criteria. Steatosis is documented and 2 cardiometabolic criterion/criteria are met (BMI 29; fasting glucose 112).

Calculations

FIB-4

Lower cutoff 1.3; high above 2.67.

Recommended next steps

For physician consideration. Urgent review always comes first.

  1. 1Assess cardiovascular risk: it is the leading cause of death in MASLD.

LV-ALC-01Alcohol intake category

Inputs: alcohol 5 g/day (male)

Alcohol intake in the MASLD range.

LV-CALC-01Derived value

Inputs: age 56 · AST 48 · ALT 50 · platelets 190

FIB-4 = 2

LV-FIB-01FIB-4 and its stratum

Inputs: FIB-4 2 · cutoff 1.3

Indeterminate: second-line test needed.

LV-01MASLD criteria met

Inputs: steatosis documented · 2 cardiometabolic criterion/criteria: BMI 29; fasting glucose 112 · alcohol in MASLD range

Pattern meeting the 2023 MASLD criteria.

LV-CV-01Cardiovascular risk assessment

Inputs: MASLD criteria met

Formal cardiovascular risk assessment is part of the work-up.

LV-04ALT above the AASLD upper limit

Inputs: ALT 50 U/L (limit 33 for male)

ALT above the sex-specific upper limit.

Physician adjudication required. Clinical decision support for physician review. This output classifies steatotic liver disease under the 2023 nomenclature and stratifies fibrosis risk. It does not stage fibrosis by itself, diagnose a cause, or recommend a drug. Physician adjudication is required.

Fibrosis risk by non-invasive tests

  1. ✓ Low

    FIB-4 <1.3 (<2.0 from 65), stiffness <8 kPa

  2. ● Indeterminate

    Needs a second-line test

  3. ○ High

    FIB-4 >2.67, stiffness ≥12 kPa or ELF ≥9.8
