Analysis on risk factors of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease complicated with hypertension in the enterprise retirees

Abstract

Objective To observe and explore the risk factors of nonalcoholic fatty liver diseas(NAFLD) complicated with hypertension in the enterprise retirees. Methods A total of 209 NAFLD patients diagnosed by ultrasound combined with questionnaire were collected in the enterprise retirees, and they were divided into the NAFLD with hypertension group(100 cases) and NAFLD without hypertension group (109 cases) after combined with physical examination results and past medical history.The relevant data of the two groups were retrospectively analyzed, and the risk factors of NAFLD complicated with hypertension disease were analyzed. Results The levels of age(t=1.69, P<0.05), body mass index(BMI)(t=0.36, P<0.05), waist circumference(t=0.64, P<0.05), total cholesterol(TC)(t=2.31, P<0.05), total bilirubin(TBS)(t=6.83, P<0.05), serum creatinine(Scr)(t=2.20, P<0.05) in NAFLD complicated with hypertension group were higher than those in NAFLD group, and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.01 or P<0.05). The logistic regression analysis showed that TC(OR=4.2) was the independent influencing factor of NAFLD with hypertension. Conclusion NAFLD is closely associated with hypertension, NAFLD can be incorporated into chronic disease management system with high blood pressure in order to improve the value of the disease in the elderly, and it is conducive to the further study of NAFLD and the management of other chronic disease.
