Anamnestic data, anthropometric and laboratory parameters and the presence of <i>PNPLA3</i> gene polymorphism I148M (rs738409 C>G) were assessed.

Patients with cACLD had significantly higher mean values of waist circumference (WC), alanine aminotransaminase, aspartate aminotransaminase, gamma-glutamyl transferase and triglycerides, non-invasive markers of steatosis and fibrosis. The compiled prognostic model demonstrated a direct relationship between the likelihood of developing cACLD and the presence of T2DM (adjusted odds ratio - AOR 3.28; 95% CI 0.62-17.33), dyslipidemia (AOR 5.89; 95% CI 1.21-28.67) and WC value (AOR 1.05; 95% CI 1.01-1.11). <i>PNPLA3</i> I148M gene polymorphism did not significantly affect the development of late stages of the disease.
