Table 3. Linear regression analysis linking each diet-quality score and the intrahepatic triglyceride content 1 (n = 797).

Diet-quality score Age and sex adjusted Multivariate adjusted 2
Beta SE P value Beta SE P value
MDS -0.036 0.011 0.001 -0.033 0.009 <0.001
DQI-I -0.006 0.002 0.001 -0.004 0.001 0.003

1 Logarithmic transformation was applied for regression analysis

2 Further adjusted for BMI, energy intake, current smoker status (yes/no), current drinker status (yes/no), central obesity (yes/no), triglyceride >1.7 mmol/l (yes/no), reduced HDL-cholesterol (yes/no), hypertension (yes/no), impaired fasting glucose or diabetes (yes/no), and the PNPLA3 genotypes (CC vs. CG vs. GG genotypes)
