Figure 1. Bar chart depicting the multivariable adjusted least square means of peripheral arterial tone (PAT) ratio + standard error (SE) overall and by Body Mass Index (BMI) categories according to presence or absence of NAFLD.

Figure 1

The BMI categories are defined as normal BMI (BMI < 25 kg/m2), Overweight (25 kg/m2 ≤ BMI < 30 kg/m2) and Obese (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2). No NAFLD represents a normal Liver Phantom Ratio (LPR) (LPR > 0.33) and NAFLD represents an abnormal LPR (LPR ≤ 0.33). Overall, PAT ratio NAFLD vs non-NAFLD p<0.0001;PAT ratio normal weight NAFLD vs non-NAFLD p=0.26; PAT ratio overweight NAFLD vs non-NAFLD p=0.0006; PAT ratio obese NAFLD vs non-NAFLD p=0.06.
