Objective To understand the incidence and distribution characteristics of fatty liver among the physical examination population in Chibi City, explore the risk factors for the occurrence and development of fatty liver, and provide scientific basis for scientific prevention and control of fatty liver. Methods Master the incidence and distribution characteristics of fatty liver among the physical examination population in Chibi City, explore the risk factors for the occurrence and development of fatty liver, and provide scientific basis for scientific prevention and control of fatty liver. Diagnosis of fatty liver using instantaneous elastic imaging technology, with detection indicators including body mass index, triglycerides, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. The questionnaire survey includes dietary habits, exercise, smoking, alcohol consumption, and past medication history. Results Among the 1443 study subjects, 903 were screened for fatty liver disease, with a total prevalence rate of 62.58%, including 73.16% for males and 39.69% for females. Single factor analysis of fatty liver: Gender, age, body mass index, triglycerides, total cholesterol, low-density protein cholesterol, greasy diet, smoking, alcohol consumption, hypoglycemic drugs, and lipid-lowering drugs were statistically significant (P<0.05) with fatty liver. The abnormal increase in body mass index and triglycerides showed an increasing trend in the incidence of fatty liver. In the multivariate logistic analysis of fatty liver, male, age, increased body mass index, and abnormal triglycerides were independent risk factors for fatty liver. Conclusions The prevalence of fatty liver is high among the physical examination population in Chibi City, and it tends to increase with age; Male, age, obesity, and abnormal triglycerides are independent risk factors for fatty liver disease. In the future prevention and control of fatty liver disease, we will strengthen health education and promotion activities, enhance residents health awareness, conduct regular physical examinations, and achieve early detection, diagnosis, and personalized treatment.
