Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a growing disease globally. It is strongly related to obesity and insulin resistance. NAFLD poses a public health issue because it may progress to NASH and subsequently to cirrhosis [1].

There is evidence that its prevalence is also increasing in children which creates an urgent need to identify patients with NAFLD and intervene early.
