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)

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.
