Patients with mysteatosis had a significantly lower serum albumin (36 ± 11 g/L vs. 43 ± 5 g/L, p = 0.001, Table 1) and suffered more often from alcoholic liver disease (38% vs. 13%, p = 0.005, Table 1), while viral liver disease was observed less frequently (14% vs. 42%, p = 0.001, Table 1). This evidence concerns the gene ALB and alcoholic liver diseases.
