Physical activity and nutrition attitudes in obese Hispanic children with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis

Figure 1 Intake of milk, fruits and fries. This figure plots the percentage of subjects responding to school physical activity and nutrition questions regarding food consumption. Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis subjects reported consuming significantly less fruits than obese and lean control subjects. CO: Lean controls; OB: Obese controls; NA: Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis subjects. ^aP < 0.05, vs CO group; ^cP < 0.05, vs OB group.

Figure 2 Physical activity and sedentary behavior. This figure demonstrates the physical activity scores and sedentary scores of obese children with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) compared with obese controls and lean controls. NASH subjects reported significantly less physical activity than obese and lean controls. CO: Lean controls; OB: Obese controls; NA: Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis subjects. ^aP < 0.05, vs CO group; ^cP < 0.05, vs OB group.

Figure 3 Milk intake and sedentary score by severity of fibrosis in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis subjects. This figure demonstrates milk consumption and sedentary scores amongst subjects with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis. All subjects with advanced fibrosis (grades 2 or 3), had a sedentary score > 2 compared to only 63.6% of those with grade 1 or no fibrosis (^aP < 0.05, vs group 1).
