*Adjusted by age, sex, systolic blood pressure, fasting glucose, hemoglobin, alanine aminotransferase, gamma-glutamyl transferase, smoking, alcohol, physical activity and socioeconomic status.
LR, likelihood ratio. The p-values of a and b for LR are 0.0037 and 0.163, respectively, and all p-values of the other LRs are less than 0.0001.
