Multivariable-adjusted rates of liver-related mortality (A) and all-cause mortality (B) by alcohol intake and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels. Marginally-adjusted mortality rates were calculated from a Poisson regression model adjusted for age, sex, body mass index, Charlson comorbidity index, diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, smoking status (never, ever or unknown), residential area (metropolitan, rural and unknown), and income percentile (≤30th, >30th–≤70th, >70th, and unknown)
