Disease regression and progression were defined using categorical and continuous changes in alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT) previously linked to histologic improvement or worsening. Spaghetti plots illustrated trends over time, while longitudinal linear mixed\u2010effects models and proportional odds mixed models assessed associations between CAP, LSM, and liver enzyme outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The cohort included 149 children (72% male, 43% Hispanic) with a mean age of 14\u2009\u00b1\u20094 years and a mean follow\u2010up of 1.4 years. CAP and LSM showed marked intraindividual variability. Independent predictors of CAP change included age, body mass index (BMI) percentile, and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c); predictors of LSM change included ALT, BMI, and HbA1c. Changes in CAP and LSM did not predict categorical outcomes of ALT and GGT reduction, however were significantly positively associated with continuous ALT and GGT outcomes, independent of BMI percentile.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Longitudinal VCTE in pediatric MASLD has the potential to identify disease progression.
