Prevalence characteristics of fatty liver and its risk factors analysis in young and middle-aged people / 中国综合临床

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the prevalence characteristics of fatty liver in young and middle-aged people,and to explore the risk factors of the disease,so as to provide clinical evidence for the prevention and treatment of fatty liver.Methods In 756 young and middle-aged healthy subjects with age≤50 years old,there were 197 fatty liver cases were diagnosed by ultrasonic test during 2015 year.The prevalence of different characteristics in young and middle-aged fatty liver was analyzed,the difference of blood biochemical index between fatty liver and non fatty liver group was compared,and risk factors of fatty liver was explored by binary logistic regression model.Results The total prevalence rate of fatty liver in young and middle-aged people was 26.1%(197/756),among which 33.1% (119/359) were male and 19.6%(78/397) were female,the prevalence rate of male was significantly higher than that of female(χ2=17.833,P<0.05).The prevalence rate of fatty liver increased with age(χ2=33.296,P<0.05),which in 40-50 years old was 37.1%(111/299) and significantly higher than that in 20 years-(15.0%)(24/160) and 30 years-(20.9%)(62/297).Logistic regression analysis on influencing factors of fatty liver prevalence showed that age,sex,body mass index(BMI),drinking,diabetes and fasting blood glucose(FPG),triglyceride(TG),total cholesterol(TC) were closely related to fatty liver(P<0.05),overweight,obesity,drinking,diabetes increased the risk of fatty liver disease.Biochemical indicators(FPG,TG,TC) in fatty liver group were higher than those in non fatty liver group((7.09±1.47) mmol/L vs.(5.14±1.71) mmol/L,(5.98±1.23) mmol/L vs.(4.95±1.42) mmol/L,(2.03±0.45) mmol/L vs.(1.23±0.67) mmol/L,t=271.905,98.866,278.255;P<0.05).Conclusion The prevalence rate of fatty liver in young and middle-aged people is high,and controlling body weight,give up drinking,active treating diabetes,reducing blood glucose and blood lipids can effectively decrease the prevalence of fatty liver in young and middle-aged people.
