Table 5
Multivariate logistic regression analyses of phase angles at a frequency of 50 kHz with NAFLD and abnormal CAP, stratified analyses by BMI.
| Phase angles | NAFLD: OR (95% CI)a | Abnormal CAP: OR (95% CI)b | BMI <30 | BMI ≥30 | BMI <30 | BMI ≥30 |
| Right arm | 1.23 (0.89 to 1.68) | 0.57 (0.19 to 1.75) | 1.12 (0.83 to 1.52) | 1.01 (0.55 to 1.85) | Left arm | 1.33 (0.97 to 1.82) | 0.68 (0.24 to 1.98) | 1.29 (0.96 to 1.75) | 1.07 (0.59 to 1.94) | Trunk | 1.18 (1.01 to 1.39) | 1.04 (0.55 to 1.97) | 1.22 (1.04 to 1.43) | 1.02 (0.71 to 1.46) | Right leg | 1.70 (1.30 to 2.22) | 0.66 (0.27 to 1.60) | 1.58 (1.22 to 2.05) | 1.39 (0.82 to 2.35) | Left leg | 1.53 (1.17 to 2.00) | 0.63 (0.25 to 1.61) | 1.49 (1.15 to 1.93) | 1.61 (0.92 to 2.79) | Whole body | 1.65 (1.20 to 2.28) | 0.58 (0.19 to 1.76) | 1.47 (1.08 to 2.00) | 1.20 (0.65 to 2.24) |
