	GGT > 68 IU/l (%)	Mean of GGT (GeometricMean ± SD)
Women with elevated TG level (n = 667)	89(13.5)	32.4 ± 1.9
With fatty liver (n = 137)	22(16.1)	38.9 ± 1.8
Without fatty liver (n = 530)	67(12.6)	30.9 ± 1.9^b
Women with normal TG level (n = 3544)	169(4.8)	22.4 ± 1.7
With fatty liver (n = 254)	14(5.5)	28.2 ± 1.7
