Semin Liver Dis. 2013 May;33(2):167-77 Hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation following immunosuppression is defined by an abrupt rise in HBV replication followed by laboratory signs of hepatocellular injury in a “silent” hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) carrier. Reactivation can also occur, albeit at a lower rate, in patients with occult HBV infection. The clinical presentation of reactivation is variable ranging from an asymptomatic course to severe hepatitis, liver failure, and death. It is most frequently observed in patients with lymphoma treated Published on:

Abstract Objectives: Congenital portosystemic shunts (CPSSs) are rare but increasingly recognized as a cause of important multisystem morbidity. We present new cases and a systematic literature review and propose an algorithm for the identification and care of affected patients. Published on:

Serum retinol-binding protein 4 is independently associated with pediatric NAFLD and fasting triglyceride level. Huang SC, Yang YJ. Source Department of Pediatrics, Kuo General Hospital, Tainan, Taiwan. Abstract OBJECTIVES: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is identified as a major liver disease in children. The present study aimed to identify the prevalence and predictors of pediatric NAFLD and the correlation between serum retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) levels and metabolic characteristics in children.

Park, Hong Kyu*; Hwang, Jin Soon†; Moon, Jin Soo‡; Lee, Jun Ah§; Kim, Dong Ho§; Lim, Jung Sub§ Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology & Nutrition. 56(6):686-691, June 2013.doi: 10.1097/MPG.0b013e31828b4e67 http://journals.lww.com/jpgn/Abstract/2013/06000/Healthy_Range_of_Serum_... Abstract Background and Aim: Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) is not only a surrogate marker of chronic liver disease but also predictive of future development of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in adults; however, pediatric reference data are rare, and “healthy-range ALT limits” have not been assessed to predict cardiovascular risk in children and adolescents.

Abstract Objectives: Oxidative stress has been implicated in the development of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and progression to the more severe form, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), in children. We aimed to study the clinical correlation between bilirubin, a potent endogenous antioxidant with cytoprotective properties, and histopathological findings in pediatric patients with NAFLD.
