Fig. 2 Relationship between HIC (mean ± SD) and fibrosis in those subjects who consume less than 60 g alcohol per day (□) compared with those who drink greater than or equal to 60 g per day (▩). Numbers in parentheses represent numbers of subjects in each group. *P value between groups with no fibrosis vs. severe/cirrhosis; mild/mod fibrosis vs. severe/cirrhosis in subjects with alcohol consumption <60 g/day (□). **P value comparing patients with severe fibrosis/cirrhosis who consume <60 g/day and those with severe fibrosis/cirrhosis who consume ≥60 g/day.

Fig. 3 Relationship between HIC and fibrosis in (A) all subjects who consume less than 60 g alcohol/day (n = 170) and (B) those subjects who drink equal to or more than 60 g per day (n = 36). Numbers in parentheses represent numbers of subjects in each group. Horizontal bars represent mean HIC.

Fig. 4 Relationship between HIC and fibrosis in (A) subjects who drink less than 60 g per day and who have normal liver blood tests (LBT) (n = 117) and (B) those who have abnormal LBT (n = 53). Numbers in parentheses represent numbers of subjects in each group. Horizontal bars represent mean HIC.

Fig. 6 The prevalence of abnormal liver blood tests, steatosis, fibrosis, cirrhosis, and HCC in relation to alcohol consumption in hereditary hemochromatosis (□, alcohol consumption <60 g per day; ▩, alcohol consumption ≥60 g per day). Numbers refer to number of subjects in each group. AbnLBT, abnormal liver blood tests; HCC, hepatocellular carcinoma.
