*For sensitivity analyses, only individuals taking Omega-3 were referred to, with hazard ratios and p-values calculated consistently compared to individuals not taking Omega-3. **Incident Liver Disease is defined as new onset Liver Disease K70-K77 after Baseline examination. ***Sex was excluded from the covariates. Bold values are significant (p-value < 0.05).
