Abstract

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: There is a high unmet need to develop noninvasive tools to identify nonalcoholic fatty liver disease/nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NAFLD/NASH) patients at risk of fast progression to end-stage liver disease (ESLD). This study describes the development of a machine learning (ML) model using data around the first clinical evidence of NAFLD/NASH to identify patients at risk of future fast progression.
