What the engine reports

Detected clinical pattern

Steatosis Without a Cardiometabolic Criterion

MASLD criteria are not met. Consider other causes of steatosis.

  • Alcohol: Alcohol 0 g/day · MASLD range
  • Fibrosis risk: Fibrosis risk · low

Calculations

FIB-4
0.65

Lower cutoff 1.3; high above 2.67.

Differentials, pitfalls and contradicting signals

  • Other causes of steatosis: drugs, genetic and endocrine causes, rapid weight loss, malnutrition, lipodystrophy.
Evidence and rule trace · 5 rules

LV-ALC-01Alcohol intake category

Inputs: alcohol 0 g/day (female)

Alcohol intake in the MASLD range.

LV-CALC-01Derived value

Inputs: age 34 · AST 30 · ALT 34 · platelets 270

FIB-4 = 0.65

LV-FIB-01FIB-4 and its stratum

Inputs: FIB-4 0.65 · cutoff 1.3

Low risk of advanced fibrosis.

LV-03Steatosis without a cardiometabolic risk factor

Inputs: steatosis documented · no cardiometabolic risk factor

MASLD criteria not met; consider other causes of steatosis.

LV-04ALT above the AASLD upper limit

Inputs: ALT 34 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
