Abstract: Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of fatty liver on physical healthy examination in 800 faculty in Chongqing. Methods 800 faculty members underwent physical examinations in our hospital between 2016 and 2017. All the individuals received sonography and blood analysis. The Logistic analysis was applied to reveal the risk factors. Results The prevalence of fatty liver was 28.4%(227/800) in our series, and out of which, the prevalence of fatty liver in male personnel was 39.1%, significantly higher than 20.2% in female (P<0.05), the positive detection as high risk population in individuals greater than 40 year old was 74.0% (169/227), and the prevalence of fatty liver in uneducated population was 42.8%, significantly higher than 27.7% in educated or 23.1% in well-educated persons(P<0.05); in individuals with fatty liver, the systolic blood pressure was(132.3±5.6)mmHg, the diastolic blood pressure was(83.2±10.9) mmHg, the body mass index (BMI) was (26.9±3.2)kg/m², the fasting blood glucose was (6.1±1.5)mmol/L, total blood cholesterol was (5.3±0.9)mmol/L, the triglycerides was (4.2±2.1)mmol/L, the uric acid was (361.9±85.9)μmol/L and serum alanine aminotransferase levels was (51.5±5.5)U/L, all significantly higher than [(116.9±23.2)mmHg, (71.9±9.9)mmHg, (22.7±2.7)kg/m²,(5.2±1.1)mmol/L,(2.2±1.7)mmol/L,(1.3±0.9)mmol/L,(328.9±213.4)μmol/L and (19.5±4.9)U/L, respectively, P<0.05] in persons without fatty liver; the multivariate Logistic analysis showed than the male, older than 40 years, uneducated, with hypertension and the BMI>24 kg/m² were the independent risk factors for occurrence of fatty liver. Conclusion The prevalence of fatty liver in faculty personnel is high, and the physical examination in time might diagnose the entity early and help give them healthy consultation as early as possible.
