Abstract
The 2008 criteria diagnose AIH in children with high levels of sensitivity and specificity, and are easier to use in the clinic. Diagnosis of AIH in patients who present in FHF requires the 1999 criteria. Levels of globulin and immunoglobulin G can be used interchangeably in the simplified diagnostic criteria.
