Input (English): Question: Is the macrophage activation marker sCD163 associated with changes in NAFLD and metabolic profile during lifestyle intervention in obese children?
Answer: sCD163 was associated with markers of liver injury and metabolic parameters in obese children, and changes in these parameters during lifestyle intervention. This may suggest that activated macrophages play a role in NAFLD and sCD163 may serve as a marker of liver disease severity and treatment effect.
