Core Tip The albumin-bilirubin score is a simple, objective index derived from routine laboratory tests that reflects hepatic functional reserve. In metabolic-associated steatotic liver disease, albumin-bilirubin complements fibrosis-based models by providing functional information that may improve early risk detection and guide referral or monitoring strategies. Its accessibility and cost-effectiveness make it an attractive candidate for integration into clinical workflows and public health frameworks, although further validation and threshold calibration are still needed.
