Abbreviations: 95% CI: 95% confidence interval; OR: odds ratio; †: the presence or absence of NAFLD was the dependent variable. Model 1: not adjusted for any confounding factors. Model 2: adjusted for gender and age. Model 3: adjusted for variables included in the model such as gender; age (years) 31 to 40, 41 to 50, and >50; BMI (kg/m2) 23.0 to 24.9; U/L; U/L; mmol/L; mmol/L; mmol/L; mmol/L; mmol/L; %; and %.
