UOR: unadjusted odds ratio (95% confidence interval).

AOR: adjusted odds ratio (95% confidence interval), adjusted for age, gender, LDL, smoking history, and physical activity.

n (%) represents number and percentage of subjects with outcome of interest (steatosis or elevated hsCRP) among a specific phenotype (MHNW, MUNW, MHO or MUHO).

* P value > 0.05. All other data has associated P < 0.05 unless otherwise noted.
