Table 5 Changed alcohol consumption habits among four groups

Previous fatty liver	Present fatty liver	Men		Women
Previous fatty liver	Present fatty liver	n	Change of alcohol consumption (g/wk)	n	Change of alcohol consumption (g/wk)
Negative	Negative	2784	–1.69 (109.95)	2112	–5.38 (48.13)
Negative	Positive	269	4.07 (116.14)	75	–20.69 (142.71)
Positive	Negative	202	6.07 (104.09)	42	–20.9 (56.96)
Positive	Positive	1179	–4.45 (100.32)	206	–5.56 (31.87)

Change in alcohol consumption (g/wk) was calculated by present alcohol consumption minus previous alcohol consumption, and expressed as mean (SD). We performed a Tukey test to investigate the statistical significance of the difference between two groups. No significant difference was identified.
