eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; NAFLD, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease; MetS, metabolic syndrome; hsCRP, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein. aModel 1 was unadjusted. bModel 2 was adjusted for age, sex, smoking status, alcohol consumption, and physical activity. cModel 3 was adjusted for age, sex, smoking status, alcohol consumption, physical activity, body mass index, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
