Beta-3-adrenergic Receptor rs4994 Polymorphism Is a Potential Biomarker for the Development of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Overweight/Obese Individuals

Figure 2

The ROC curves for the presence of NAFLD based on the BMI in each ADRB3 genotype, using 5,000 randomly sampled data sets. The curves of the subjects with the ADRB3 rs4994 T/T () (a), T/C () (b), and C/C () (c) genotypes are shown separately. ROC: receiver operating characteristic; NAFLD: nonalcoholic fatty liver disease; BMI: body mass index; ADRB3: beta-3-adrenergic receptor; AUC: area under the curve; CI: confidential interval.
