Deep Learning for Liver Fibrosis Triage in MASLD Using Longitudinal Electronic Health Records

NIMIT-AI: Neural Inference for Metabolic-liver Integrated Trajectories: Leveraging Deep Learning to Enhance Reliability in MASLD Triage

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 30 Jun 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study looks at a new computer program called NIMIT-AI (Neural Inference for Metabolic-liver Integrated Trajectories, Artificial Intelligence) that helps doctors find liver scarring early in patients with fatty liver disease. Fatty liver disease, also called metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), is a common condition where fat builds up in the liver. Over time, this can cause scarring (fibrosis). Finding scarring early helps doctors treat it before it gets worse. Right now, doctors use a blood test score called FIB-4 to check for scarring. But this score misses many patients and cannot be calculated when blood test results are incomplete. NIMIT-AI works differently. It reads a patient's blood test results over multiple visits, not just one visit, to spot patterns that suggest liver scarring. It was tested on 969 patients seen at Siriraj Hospital in Bangkok, Thailand between 2018 and 2022. In testing, NIMIT-AI found liver scarring more accurately than FIB-4. It also worked even when some blood test results were missing, which happens often in real clinics. This study did not ask patients to do anything extra. It used health records that were already collected as part of regular care.
