Furthermore, by multivariate analysis, CBI was indeed inversely associated with the degree of hepatic steatosis [odd ratio (OR) 0.037, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.014–0.098], adjusted for age, gender, body mass index (BMI) z-score, CBI, platelet, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), glutamyl transferases (GGT), albumin, prealbumin, cholinesterase, uric acid, total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), the stage of fibrosis and the grade of hepatic necroinflammation. This evidence concerns the gene GPT and Hepatic steatosis.
