Adipokines and C-reactive protein in relation to bone mineralization in pediatric nonalcoholic fatty liver disease

Figure 1 Bone measures. A: Lumbar spine bone mineral density Z-score (LS BMD Z-score) for obese children with and without nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Box-plots give the median value (bold), 25^th and 75^th percentiles (lower and upper limits of the box), and lower and upper adjacent values (whiskers); B: Whole body bone mineral density Z-score (WB BMD Z-score) for obese children with and without NAFLD. Box-plots give the median value (bold), 25^th and 75^th percentiles (lower and upper limits of the box), and lower and upper adjacent values (whiskers); C: LS BMD Z-score for obese children with biopsy-proven NAFLD subdivided into those with and without nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Box-plots give the median value (bold), 25^th and 75^th percentiles (lower and upper limits of the box), and lower and upper adjacent values (whiskers); D: WB BMD Z-score for obese children with biopsy-proven NAFLD subdivided into those with and without NASH. Box-plots give the median value (bold), 25^th and 75^th percentiles (lower and upper limits of the box), and lower and upper adjacent values (whiskers).
