Danan G, Benichou C. Causality assessment of adverse reactions to drugs—I. J Clin Epidemiol. PMID: 8229110. R = (ALT/ULN) / (ALP/ULN). R ≤2 is cholestatic, R ≥5 is hepatocellular, and values between those bounds are mixed. The same bounds are used in the ACG DILI guideline (Chalasani N et al. Am J Gastroenterol. PMID: 24935270).
