Independent factors of NAFLD identified by multivariate logistic regression analysis
| Independent variable | β | S.E. | OR | P | 95% C.I |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Osteocalcin | -0.097 | 0.044 | 0.907 | 0.025 | 0.833-0.988 |
| BMI | 0.345 | 0.098 | 1.412 | <0.001 | 1.166-1.710 |
| HbA1c | 0.641 | 0.220 | 1.898 | 0.004 | 1.233-2.923 |
| TG | 1.002 | 0.277 | 2.723 | <0.001 | 1.584-4.682 |
Variables included in the original model were osteocalcin, gender, age, BMI, W, SBP, DBP, HbA1c, HOMA-IR, TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C, CRP, ALT, AST, GGT, adiponectin; use of therapeutic statins, use of anti-hypertensives, and use of anti-diabetic drugs. Abbreviations: BMI, body mass index; W, waist circumference; SBP, systolic blood pressure; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; HbA1c, glycosylated haemoglobin A1c; HOMA-IR, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance; TC, total cholesterol; TG, triglyceride; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol; CRP, C-reactive protein; ALT, alanine aminotransferase; AST, aspartate aminotransferase; GGT, gamma-glutamyl transferase.
