Rate#: incidence rate, per 1,000 person-years; Crude HR: crude hazard ratio. Adjusted HR: multivariable analysis including age, sex, and comorbidities of hypertension, stroke, hyperlipidemia, COPD, CAD, sleep disorder, asthma, anxiety, obesity, and NASH, and steroids. Comorbidity‡: patients with any one of the comorbidities hypertension, stroke, hyperlipidemia, COPD, CAD, sleep disorder, asthma, anxiety, obesity, and NASH were classified as the comorbidity group. , , .
