Table 4 Multivariate analysis of factors associated with hepatocellular carcinoma and cirrhosis

Variable1	Adjusted OR	95% CI	P value
Diabetes mellitus	4.88	1.08-21.99	0.039
INR	117.14	4.19-3272.28	0.005
Albumin level	0.89	0.80-0.99	0.027
Platelet count	0.992	0.987-0.997	0.002

¹Nine variables were included in multivariable analysis, including diabetes, presence of past history of hepatitis B virus infection, total bilirubin, albumin, international normalized ratio, alanine aminotransferase, platelet count, total cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. For better understanding of the role of Child-Pugh score, TBil, albumin and international normalized ratio (INR) were included as three independent variables and Child-Pugh score was excluded for dependence of variables. OR: Odds ratios; CI: Confidence interval.
