To exclude cirrhosis, combinations of normal laboratory findings are most useful.

Meta Analysis
Moderate to vigorous physical activity and sedentary time and cardiometabolic risk factors in children and adolescents.
Sparse data exist on the combined associations between physical activity and sedentary time with cardiometabolic risk factors in healthy children. ⋯ Higher MVPA time by children and adolescents was associated with better cardiometabolic risk factors regardless of the amount of sedentary time.
