TNF and fibrosis: From the multivariable analysis examining only demographic characteristics associated with Fibroscan values ≥9.6 kPa, only age was significantly associated with advanced fibrosis (p = 0.026) (S4a Table), while when serum markers were also added to the model (S4b Table), both age and TNFa were significantly associated with Fibroscan results ≥9.6 kPa (p = 0.026 and p = 0.028, respectively) (S4b Table).
