Abstract

INTRODUCTION:
Sarcopenia is prevalent in adults pre-liver transplantation (LTx) and post-LTx contributing to adverse outcomes. Little is known regarding the prevalence of sarcopenia in pediatric LTx recipients. This novel study examined sarcopenia prevalence and associations with post-LTx growth and healthcare utilization in pediatric LTx recipients.

Abstract

BACKGROUND:
in adults, the absence of a preexisting chronic liver disease (CLD) is required to diagnose acute liver failure (ALF). The paediatric classification does not considered this aspect, thus previous studies pooled together children with ALF and children with unknown CLD presenting with acute hepatic decompensation (ALF-CLD). We aimed to compare prevalence, features and outcome of children with ALF-CLD to those with a proper ALF.
