LME₁: Linear Mixed-Effects Model for the overall population; LME₂: Linear Mixed-Effects Model for males; LME₃: Linear Mixed-Effects Model for females; Intercept: The average intercept of all subjects; Liver cirrhosis: Whether cirrhosis had occurred at baseline; Time: The interval between each detection time and the first detection time (years); Cage: Baseline age after centralization; State: Outcome state; Time:Cage: The interaction of time and cage; Time:State: The interaction of time and state; β: Fixed-effect regression coefficient.
