TLDR
Based on data from a phase 2 randomized controlled trial of adults with NASH, PDFF estimated by MRI scanners of different field strength and at different sites, accurately classifies grades and changes in hepatic steatosis when histologic analysis of biopsies is used as a reference.

Noninvasive biomarkers in pediatric nonalcoholic fatty liver disease

TL;DR: In this article , a review of non-invasive biomarkers in pediatric nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) focusing primarily on the diagnostic accuracy of various biomarkers as measured by their area under the receiver operating characteristic, sensitivity, and specificity is presented.

The Accuracy of Ultrasound Controlled Attenuation Parameter in Diagnosing Hepatic Fat Content

TL;DR: In this article , a Controlled Attention Parameter (CAP) score was developed to quantify steatosis. But the performance of CAP is associated with diabetes but not other clinical factors and parameters of the metabolic syndrome, and univariate analysis showed a correlation between CAP and diabetes.

Surveillance of the progression and assessment of treatment endpoints for nonalcoholic steatohepatitis

TL;DR: A review of non-invasive methods for detecting steatosis, steatohepatitis, and fibrosis in patients with NASH is presented in this article , with a focus on the characteristics that should be monitored at follow-up.

Poor glycaemic control and ectopic fat deposition mediates the increased risk of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis in high-risk populations with type 2 diabetes: Insights from Bayesian-network modelling

TL;DR: In this article , the probability of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in type 2 diabetes patients was investigated using Bayesian networks and probabilistic reasoning.

Prevalence of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis Among a Largely Middle-Aged Population Utilizing Ultrasound and Liver Biopsy: A Prospective Study

TL;DR: Prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and NASH is higher than estimated previously and Hispanics and patients with diabetes are at greatest risk for both NAFLD and NASh.

Estimation of Error Rates in Discriminant Analysis

TL;DR: In this article, several methods of estimating error rates in discriminant analysis are evaluated by sampling methods, and two methods in most common use are found to be significantly poorer than some new methods that are proposed.
