Associations were analysed between sUA/GGT and anthropometrics, transaminases, lipids, fasting insulin (FI), homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), triglycerides to HDL-cholesterol (TG/HDL)-ratio.</p>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Follow-up analyses (3–24 months after baseline) considered a BMI-SDS reduction ≥0.2 (<i>n</i> = 11 096) or ≥0.5 (<i>n</i> = 3728).

Prepubertal children showed strongest correlations between BMI-SDS/WHtR and GGT. ΔBMI-SDS was strongly correlated to ΔsUA (<i>r</i> = 0.30; <i>n</i> = 4160) and ΔGGT (<i>r</i> = 0.28; <i>n</i> = 3562), and ΔWHtR to ΔGGT (<i>r</i> = 0.28; <i>n</i> = 3562) (all p < 0.0001).</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Conclusion</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Abdominal obesity may trigger hyperuricemia and hepatic involvement already in prepuberty.
