Abstract:Objective To explore the prevalence rate of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and the relationship between NAFLD and other diseases, in order to provide useful information for the prevention and treatment of NAFLD. Methods 2140 staffs of Beijing Institute of Technology, who underwent medical examination from October to December in 2016 at Hospital of Beijing Institute of Technology, were selected as the study objects. For each case, the height, weight, and waist circumference were measured, the biological tests of liver function, kidney function, blood lipid and blood glucose were taken,and the abdominal ultrasonography was performed. Firstly, according to their age, they were divided into two groups: age < 60 years (2099 cases) and age ≥ 60 years (41 cases). The prevalence rates of NAFLD between the two groups with different sex were compared. Then, according to the results of ultrasonography, there were 341 cases in NAFLD group and 1799 cases in non-NAFLD group. The prevalence rates of hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, hyperuricemia and obesity between NAFLD group and non- NAFLD group were compared. Results The prevalence rate of NAFLD was 15.93% cases (341/2140) in this study. The prevalence rate of NAFLD in male was significantly higher than that of female before the age of 60 (P < 0.01), while there was no significant difference after the age of 60(P > 0.05). There was significantly higher morbidity rate of hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, hyperuricemia and obesity in NAFLD group than that in non-NAFLD group (P < 0.05). Conclusion The prevalence rate of NAFLD in this university is at a higher level. The occurrence of NAFLD is closely related to lipid metabolic disorders. It is also a systemic disease which often combines with varies metabolic disorders, such as hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, hyperuricemia and obesity. Some necessary measures should be taken for proactive prevention and treatment of NAFLD.
