Journal ArticleDOI

Prevalence of Fatty Liver in Children and Adolescents

TL;DR: Fatty liver is the most common liver abnormality in children age 2 to 19 years, and the presence of macrovesicular hepatic steatosis in ∼1 of every 10 children has important ramifications for the long-term health of children and young adults.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of gene expression profiles in normal and neoplastic ovarian tissue samples identifies candidate molecular markers of epithelial ovarian cancer

TL;DR: This study uses oligonucleotide microarrays with probe sets complementary to >6,000 human genes to identify genes whose expression correlated with epithelial ovarian cancer and demonstrates the rapidity with which large amounts of expression data can be generated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Histopathology of pediatric nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

TL;DR: Type 1 and type 2 NASH are distinct subtypes of pediatric NAFLD, andtype 2 is the most common pattern in children, and NASH subtypes should be considered when interpreting liver biopsies and planning studies of the pathophysiology, genetics, natural history, or response to treatment in pediatricNAFLD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Obesity, insulin resistance, and other clinicopathological correlates of pediatric nonalcoholic fatty liver disease

TL;DR: A retrospective review of children with biopsy-proven nonalcoholic fatty liver disease at Children's Hospital San Diego identified significant predictors of liver pathology in children with NAFLD, including insulin resistance, which is nearly universal and correlates with liver histology.
