Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the related factors of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis in children with obesity.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 91 children with obesity who visited the Pediatric Obesity Clinic in the Affiliated Hospital of Hangzhou Normal University from July 2020 to January 2021. The 91 children with obesity were divided into two groups: with or without nonalcoholic steatohepatitis. Age, gender, body mass index, blood 25 hydroxyvitamin D3, fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein, fasting insulin, control attenuation parameter and liver hardness value of in the 2 groups were recorded. Univariate analysis of the clinical data of the two groups was performed, and the clinical data with statistically significant differences between the two groups were included in binary logistic regression analysis to explore the related factors of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis in children with obesity. And then the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) was drawn on the relevant factors.Results:The children with obesity received treatment at the age of 6 years 1 month to 14 years 11 months, the male to female ratio was 1.33∶1. And 13 children (14.3%) were diagnosed with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, of 46 nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, 9 were male and 4 were female. Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in gender, age, fasting insulin, control attenuation parameter and liver hardness value between the two groups (all P<0.05). Binary logistic regression analysis showed that control attenuation parameter ( OR=1.022, 95% CI: 1.001-1.041) and liver hardness value ( OR=1.689, 95% CI: 1.077-2.648) were the related factors of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis in children with obesity (both P<0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) values of control attenuation parameter and liver hardness value for predicting nonalcoholic steatohepatitis in children with obesity was 0.840 (95% CI: 0.748-0.931) and 0.794 (95% CI: 0.672-0.915), respectively. Conclusion:Control attenuation parameter and liver hardness value are correlated with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis in children with obesity with certain diagnostic value.
