What the engine reports

Detected clinical pattern

MetALD Pattern

Steatosis with a cardiometabolic risk factor and alcohol intake in the MetALD range. Both contribute.

  • Alcohol: Alcohol 35 g/day · MetALD range
  • Fibrosis risk: Fibrosis risk · low

Calculations

FIB-4
1.25

Lower cutoff 1.3; high above 2.67.

Evidence and rule trace · 4 rules

LV-ALC-01Alcohol intake category

Inputs: alcohol 35 g/day (female)

Alcohol intake in the MetALD range.

LV-CALC-01Derived value

Inputs: age 45 · AST 40 · ALT 36 · platelets 240

FIB-4 = 1.25

LV-FIB-01FIB-4 and its stratum

Inputs: FIB-4 1.25 · cutoff 1.3

Low risk of advanced fibrosis.

LV-04ALT above the AASLD upper limit

Inputs: ALT 36 U/L (limit 25 for female)

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
