UHR: uric acid to HDL cholesterol ratio. UHR tertile 1, <211.21 μmol/mmol; UHR tertile 2, 211.21–295.04 μmol/mmol; UHR tertile 3, >295.04 μmol/mmol. The chi-square test was used to evaluate the comparisons in NAFLD prevalence among the tertiles. was considered as statistically significant difference.
