Dyslipidemia and Fatty Liver Disease in Overweight and Obese Children https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/30009050 NAFLD J Obes. 2018 Jun 12;2018:8626818. doi: 10.1155/2018/8626818. eCollection 2018.Dyslipidemia and Fatty Liver Disease in Overweight and Obese Children.Deeb A1, Attia S1, Mahmoud S2, Elhaj G3, Elfatih A4. Abstract INTRODUCTION: Obesity is a worldwide concern. It is associated with morbidity such as dyslipidemia and liver disease. Childhood obesity has dramatically increased, particularly in the Gulf region. We aim to assess the prevalence of dyslipidemia and fatty liver disease (FLD) in overweight and obese children and analyze the association between different anthropometric measures with dyslipidemia and fatty liverdisease.

[Epub ahead of print].Transplant-free Survival in Chronic Liver Disease Presenting as Acute Liver Failure in Childhood.Di Giorgio A1, Nicastro E1, Rosa DD1, Nebbia G2, Sonzogni A3, D'Antiga L1. 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. METHODS: Published on: Jul-2018 Read more

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. METHODS: Published on: Jul-2018 Read more
