NAFLD Fibrosis Score

NAFLD Fibrosis Score (Angulo 2007): age, BMI, impaired fasting glucose / diabetes, AST/ALT ratio, platelets, and albumin; NFS < -1.455 excludes and > 0.676 indicates advanced (F3-F4) fibrosis.

Example

Age
60 years
Body mass index
30 kg/m^2
Impaired fasting glucose or diabetes
Yes
AST
60 U/L
ALT
40 U/L
Platelet count
200 x10^9/L
Albumin
4.0 g/dL

Result: NAFLD Fibrosis Score 0.74: NFS > 0.676: indicates advanced fibrosis (F3-F4).

The tool opens with these values already filled in. Replace them with your own.

What the result means

Score
NFS = -1.675 + 0.037*age + 0.094*BMI + 1.13*(IFG/DM) - 0.013*platelets - 0.66*albumin + 0.99*(AST/ALT).
Cutoffs
< -1.455 excludes advanced fibrosis (F0-F2); > 0.676 indicates advanced fibrosis (F3-F4); between is indeterminate. Triage estimate, not a biopsy substitute.
