Subjects underwent ultrasound examination of the liver. Thyroid function was evaluated by laboratory determination of thyroid\u2010stimulating hormone (TSH), total triiodothyronine (T3) and total thyroxine levels. All included subjects were either euthyroid or had subclinical hypothyroidism (TSH\u2009&gt;\u20094\u2009\u03bcU\u2009mL<jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>, normal thyroxine).

After dividing TSH values into quartiles, both univariate and multivariate analyses (adjusted for age, body mass index\u2013standard deviation scores and stage of puberty) showed a significant association with hepatic steatosis (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Taking possible variables into consideration, our results show that there is a significant association between hepatic steatosis and the TSH levels in obese children and adolescents.
