A steatotic liver disease characterized by at least one of five specified cardiometabolic risk factors and elevated alcohol consumption. This disease is distinguished from MASLD by increased alcohol consumption and from ALD by the evidence of one or more of the specified cardiometabolic risk factors. The five cardiometabolic risk factors are: (1) higher than normal body mass index or waist circumference; (2) higher than normal serum glucose or glycated hemoglobin level, or type 2 diabetes; (3) higher than normal blood pressure or hypertensive treatment; (4) higher than normal plasma triglycerides or lipid lowering treatment; and (5) lower than normal plasma high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
