  1. The list to show background characteristics of the human subjects analyzed. Among the 39 nondiabetic patients, 25 were selected as those matched with the 25 diabetic patients based on age, NAS, and stage
  2. Plus–minus values are mean ± SEM
  3. HOMA-R homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance, ALT alanine transaminase, AST aspartate transaminase, NAS NAFLD activity score
