*, logistic model was used by adjusting age (<30, 30–50, 50–70, ≥70 years old), gender (men, women), BMI (≤18.50, 18.5–24.99, 25.0–29.99, ≥30 kg/m2), fasting glucose (<7, ≥7 mmol/L), total triglyceride (<2.27, ≥2.27 mmol/L), and previous cholecystectomy (no, yes). BMI, body mass index; OR, odds ratio; GB, gall bladder; IHD, intrahepatic bile duct.
