Abstract:
Objective To study the correlation between non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1 c) in middle-aged and aged population.Methods A total of 4 127 inservice workers and retirees aged 45 years old or above from one petrochemical enterprise in Ningbo were enrolled in our study.The waistline,body mass index,blood pressure,fasting blood-glucose,blood lipid profile,glutamyltranspeptidase,HbA1c and epigastrium B ultrasound were investigated.According to the quartile of HbA1c level,participants were divided into four groups,namely,Q1 group ≤5.2%,Q2 group > 5.2%-5.4%,Q3 > 5.4%-5.6% and Q4 group > 5.6%.The prevalence of NAFLD and clinical characteristics of each group were analyzed.Logistic regression was used to predict independent risk factors of NAFLD.Results The morbidity of NAFLD was 27.2% with 31.9% in male and 21% in female,which was significantly higher in men.In Q1,Q2,Q3 and Q4 group,the prevalence of NAFLD were 18.5% (178/961),22.8% (185/812),25.6% (280/1 095),38.1% (480/1 259) respectively.With the increase of HbA1 c level,the morbidity of NAFLD increased synchronously.The age,systolic pressure,total cholesterol,low densitylipoprotein cholesterin and fasting blood-glucose were all elevated according to the increase of HbA1 c in 1 123 NAFLD patients.Multi-factor logistic regression analysis indicated that high HbAlc level was the risk factor of NAFLD (OR =1.67,95% CI 1.15-2.43,P =0.007).Conclusion HbA1c is an independent risk factor of NAFLD and both of these are closely related to blood lipid metabolism disorder.
