The P value is considered significant, for P<0.05. NAFLD – Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease; AST – Aspartate aminotransferase; ALT – Alanine aminotransferase; DIS – Debris index simplified; CIS – Calculus index simplified; BOP – Bleeding on probing; PD – Pocket depth; CAL – Clinical attachment loss; OHIS – Oral hygiene index simplified; P – P-value or probability value
