Multivariate adjusted ORs and 95% CIs for down-regulated circulating miRNAs according to Normal status.

miRNAs	Normal n = 383	Mild NAFLD n = 41	P value	Severe NAFLD n = 51	P value
miR-20a	1.0	1.14 (0.45–2.70)	0.78	4.09 (1.70–10.14)	<0.01
miR-27a	1.0	1.28 (0.52–2.98)	0.58	2.53 (1.04–6.10)	0.04
miR-126	1.0	0.93 (0.34–2.31)	0.88	1.63 (0.66–3.91)	0.28

ORs and 95% CIs were adjusted for age, sex, BMI, SBP, HbA1c, LDL-c, TG, eGFR, smoking history and medications.
