Study Summary
The purpose of the study is to determine the effect of dietary sugar reduction in obese children and examine whether there are differential effects based on genotype of a single amino acid substitution in the PNPLA3 gene that is highly prevalent in Hispanics and associated with significantly elevated liver fat.
Primary Outcome
Abdominal fat distribution (visceral fat versus subcutaneous abdominal fat), and liver fat fraction will be assessed by magnetic resonance imaging at the USC Radiology imaging center on a research-dedicated GE 3 Tesla scanner. Visceral adipose tissue, subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissue and fat in the entire liver will be determined using the 3D IDEAL method.
