Association of coffee consumption with demographical data,
laboratory values and elastographic parameters
In univariate analysis most
frequent coffee consumers (≥3 cups per day) were negatively associated
with BMI, WC, DM, AST, ALT, GGT, HOMA-IR, CAP and LSM, while positive
association was obtained for female gender and HDL. In multivariate
analysis significant negative
association was obtained in obese patients, WC, AST, ALT and CAP.
Patients which consumed 1-2 cups per day were in multivariate model
negatively associated with WC and CAP (Table 2).
