Table 5 mean values of total fat, visceral fat, and subcutaneous fat among three different groups of hepatic fat infiltration

	n	mean ± SD	Minimum	Maximum
TF (cm²)
Normal	249	299.8 ± 133.3	68.8	869.6
Fatty liver	57	409.8 ± 159.3	126.6	838.0
VF (cm²)
Normal	249	110.1 ± 59.7	15.7	316.6
Fatty liver	57	171.4 ± 79.8	46.5	377.2
SF (cm²)
Normal	249	189.7 ± 92.8	12.9	571.3
Fatty liver	57	238.4 ± 108.0	72.4	628.6

The differences in total fat (TF), visceral fat (VF), and subcutaneous fat (SF) between the two groups of normal and fatty liver patients were all statistically significant (P < 0.001). n: Number of patients.
