These findings are thought to result from low plasma concentrations of fat-soluble vitamin E. Increased serum transaminases and fatty liver have also been reported in heterozygous FHBL individuals (5,6). [thefreelibrary.com]
Treatment
Make the best clinical decisions with an enhanced emphasis on evidence-based practice and expert opinions on treatment strategies. Zero in on the most relevant and useful references with the aid of a more focused, concise bibliography. [books.google.com]

Prognosis
Generally, for people with a mild or moderate form of FHBL who do not have destruction of liver cells or fatty liver, the prognosis is very good. [2] Homozygotes with FHBL are much more rare, and signs and symptoms vary. [rarediseases.info.nih.gov]
