Changed alcohol consumption habits among four groups
Previous fatty liver | Present fatty liver | Men | Women | ||
n | Change of alcohol consumption (g/wk) | n | Change of alcohol consumption (g/wk) | ||
Negative | Negative | 2784 | –1.69 (109.95) | 2112 | –5.38 (48.13) |
Negative | Positive | 269 | 4.07 (116.14) | 75 | –20.69 (142.71) |
Positive | Negative | 202 | 6.07 (104.09) | 42 | –20.9 (56.96) |
Positive | Positive | 1179 | –4.45 (100.32) | 206 | –5.56 (31.87) |
Change in alcohol consumption (g/wk) was calculated by present alcohol consumption minus previous alcohol consumption, and expressed as mean (SD). We performed a Tukey test to investigate the statistical significance of the difference between two groups. No significant difference was identified.
