Multivariate analyses identifying factors associated with chronic HBV infection (n = 1,001)
| OR (95% CI) | P value | |
|---|---|---|
| Erosive esophagitis | 1.75 (1.03–2.97) | 0.037 |
| Age (years) | 0.99 (0.97–1.01) | 0.348 |
| Sex (male = 1) | 1.11 (0.69–1.78) | 0.677 |
| BMI (kg/m2) | 0.99 (0.93–1.06) | 0.849 |
| Fasting blood glucose (mg/dL) | 1.01 (1.00–1.01) | 0.012 |
| Total cholesterol (mg/dL) | 0.99 (0.99–1.00) | 0.036 |
| AST (IU/L) | 1.01 (0.99–1.03) | 0.269 |
| ALP (IU/L) | 1.01 (1.00–1.02) | 0.027 |
| Platelet (K/μL) | 0.99 (0.99–1.00) | 0.012 |
Multivariate logistic regression model was used. Use HBsAg (+) as reference and dependent variable, and age, sex, BMI, fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, AST, ALP, platelet and erosive esophagitis as independent variables
P < 0.05 is considered as statistical significance
