| β | SE β | p-Value | CI | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Constant | −11.31 | 1.65 | <1 × 10−5 | (−14.56, −8.01) |
| ALT (IU/L) | 0.89 | 0.02 | <1 × 10−5 | (0.85, 0.92) |
| Age (years) | −0.08 | 0.03 | <0.001 | (−0.14, −0.02) |
| RYGB vs. SG | −5.67 | 1.07 | <1 × 10−5 | (−7.77, −3.58) |
| OAGB vs. SG | −5.94 | 1.38 | <1 × 10−5 | (−8.65, −3.24) |
β: regression coefficient; SE: standard error; CI: 95% confidence interval; ALT: alanine aminotransferase; SG: sleeve gastrectomy; RYGB: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass; OAGB: one anastomosis gastric bypass. n = 1355, R2 = 0.66.
