Difference of liver diameters between genders

Model covariates	Age		Age and height
	diff (cm)	p-value	diff (cm)	p-value
Right lobe craniocaudal	−0.24	0.012	−0.16	0.070
Right lobe anteroposterior	−0.21	0.018	−0.16	0.067
Left lobe craniocaudal	−0.09	0.288	−0.07	0.403
Left lobe anteroposterior	−0.17	0.012	−0.13	0.055

Difference between genders as determined from models including smoothing terms for the covariates (1) age, (2) age and height. The mean difference between genders (females compared with males) as well as the significance of this difference are given for each liver dimension
