The TRAF6-associated risk for SBP was higher in patients with non-alcoholic cirrhosis (adjusted odds ratio 3.04; 95% CI 1.11–8.36; P = 0.031) than in patients with alcoholic cirrhosis (adjusted odds ratio 1.81; 95% CI 1.04–3.17; P = 0.037) according the multivariate logistic regression model 2. This evidence concerns the gene TRAF6 and alcoholic liver cirrhosis.
