Mean ± standard deviation or percentage of patients. ACE-Is, angiotensin converting enzyme-inhibitors; ARBs, Angiotensin Receptor Blockers; ALT, alanine transaminase; AST, aspartate aminotransferase; BMI, body mass index; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; GGT, gamma-glutamyltransferase; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Missing data: AST in 1187 (1.3%), ALT in 1266 (1.3%), serum creatinine and eGFR in 3280 (3.5%), albuminuria in 15901 (16.8%), total cholesterol in 92 (0.1%), HDL-C (mg/dL) in 168 (0.2%), and smoking status in 101 (0.1%). The FIB-4 was calculable in 15882 (40.8%) patients with complete ALT, AST, and platelet count. The level of statistical significance for differences between groups is indicated by for FLI 30–59 versus FLI < 30, for FLI ≥ 60 versus FLI < 30, and for FLI ≥ 60 versus FLI 30–59. : , : , : , and —: n.s. |
