	Univariate analysis p	Multivariate analysis Odds ratio (95% CI)	p
Heavy alcohol consumption (gr/day)	0.018	3.12 (1.18-5.25)	0.01
Excessive amount of coffee use (>5 year and daily)	0.008	0.74 (0.46-0.88)	0.03
TE LSM (kPa)	0.013	1.68 (0.94-3.07)	0.04
Gender (M)	0.033	1.08 (1.45-6.08)	0.84
TE CAP (dB/m)	0.015	1.00 (0.99-1.01)	0.69

CI: Confidence interval; M: Male; TE: Transient elastography; LSM: Liver stiffness measure; CAP: Controlled attenuation parameter. Results expressed as number (%) or median (range) unless specified otherwise.
