Adjusted odds ratio (AOR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of the association between NAFLD stage and gender.

Reference = normal/mild NAFLD	NAFLD
	Moderate	Severe
	AOR [95% CI]	AOR [95% CI]
No menopause	Ref	Ref
Menopause, no hormone	0.9 [0.6–1.3]	1.0 [0.5–1.9]
Menopause, yes hormone	1.1 [0.4–2.9]	1.1 [0.4–2.8]
Male	1.4 [0.9–2.1]	2.1 [1.5–2.9]

Adjusted for demographic variables (age, race/ethnicity, education, language spoken, and poverty), physical activity status, smoking status, diet quality (healthy eating index), body composition (waist-to-hip ratio and body mass index), and laboratory values [cholesterol, HDL, triglyceride, glucose, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), highly-sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP), AST, and ALT].

Bold = statistically significant at p < 0.05.
