Fig. 3. The percentage of metabolic syndrome combined to the degree of obesity or the degree of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The percentage of metabolic syndrome combined to the degree of obesity (A) was not increased according to the increase in the degree of obesity (p=0.288, likelihood-ratio χ² test). The percentage of metabolic syndrome combined to the degree of NAFLD (B) was higher in the group with more severe degree of NAFLD (p=0.005, likelihood-ratio χ² test), even though the percentage between moderate and severe NAFLD was reversed.
