Table 2 Correlation between hepatic attenuation indices and total fat, visceral fat, and subcutaneous fat

	TF	VF	SF
CT_LP	r = -0.415	r = -0.434	r = -0.313
	P = 0.000	P = 0.000	P = 0.000
LS ratio	r = -0.258	r = -0.298	r = -0.172
	P = 0.000	P = 0.000	P = 0.003
LS_dif	r = -0.297	r = -0.330	r = -0.210
	P = 0.000	P = 0.000	P = 0.000

CT_LP: Mean attenuation of the liver; LS ratio: Mean attenuation of the liver/mean attenuation of the spleen; LS_dif: Mean attenuation of the liver–mean attenuation of the spleen; TF: Total fat; VF: Visceral fat; SF: Subcutaneous fat.
