Description
Buket Daldaban Sarıca and five co-workers wrote a 2026 study on fat in the pancreas and weak enzyme output in children with fatty liver disease. They measured a stool enzyme that flags how well the pancreas works. Children were split by whether they had the metabolic liver condition. Scans, body measures and lab values were compared across groups.
Just over one hundred and sixty children took part. Pancreas fat was far more common in the liver-disease group. Low enzyme levels were also much more frequent there. The link between pancreas fat and low enzyme held inside that group as well. The findings tie two organs' fat problems together in children.
