Abstract Purpose Steatotic liver diseases (SLD) have become more prevalent over the last decade and are associated not only with cardiometabolic but also psychological symptoms (depression, fatigue). These common in post-COVID syndrome (PCS). Therefore, aim of study was to analyze burden SLD PCS patients. Methods We systematically screened all patients from our outpatient clinic using transient elastography, structured questionnaires for neurocognitive evaluation blood sample analysis. Controls without known were recruited assessed same approach. Results 560 103 healthy controls included. The overall prevalence high both cohorts (57 vs. 53%). frequently male (41 24%), older (52 44 years) had (87.0 46.4%). Cognitive impairment related than no-SLD group (OR: 1.68, CI: 1.14–2.46, p = 0.008). presence severe COVID-19 hospitalization 2.91, 1.85–4.56, < 0.001). Within 1 year follow-up, 152 289 described a resolution irrespective or absence (log-rank 0.96). Conclusions is cognitive dysfunction PCS. Longitudinal studies needed assess role hepatic steatosis, development post-acute infection regulation (e.g., SARS-CoV-2) differentiate between SLD-associated
