The healthcare burden of alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) is rising, especially in younger adults and women, with worrying ethnic and racial disparities in ALD burden. Epidemic metabolic risk factors and obesity seem to drive higher prevalence of both ALD and NAFLD. This symposium will address ALD in special at-risk populations and how hepatologists can effectively diagnose and manage these patients.
