Research On The Relationship Between Fatty Liver And Physical Fitness Among A Sport University Faculty

Objective:To define the prevalence,distribution of fatty liver among people with different ages and sex as well as to investigate the influence of exercise on fatty liver.The physical fitness status of people who suffered from fatty liver was also cognized and evaluated.Methods:The distribution of fatty liver was analyzed in accordance with the results of physical check-up of school staff in the past two years. Questionnaire was used to study the influence of exercise to fatty liver. A physical fitness check-up were carried on some people who suffered from fatty liver.Result:1.General features of prevalence of fatty liver:In 2007,total prevalence rate of fatty liver were 25.17%,the prevalence rate of male and female is 33.60%and 16.01%respectively。Total prevalence rate of 50～group is top of 36.92%,male prevalence rate of 50～group is top of 49.46%and female prevalence rate of 60～group is top of 30.51%. In 2008,total prevalence rate of the disease is 24.58%,the prevalence rate of male and female is 29.60%and 18.66%respectively。Total prevalence rate of 50～group is top of 35.96%,male prevalence rate of 50～group is top of 40%and female prevalence rate of 60～group is top of 36.96%.Compared with their respective normal control group,the prevalence rate of fatty liver was significantly higher in the groups had hyperglycemia,hyperlipidemia or hypertension.2.The influence of exercise:Grouped by sex and 10 years segment,at each age segment the prevalence rate of fatty liver had no remarkable difference among different physical activity level groups whatever men or women.3.Physical fitness status:BMI,weight,fat%of people who suffered from fatty liver were higher than normal people.Compared with normal,vital capacity/weight,Grip strength/weight of the patients with fatty liver were weaker.The people with fatty liver also had lower integrated scores of physical fitness.We followed up some patients for 7 months and we found the degree of fatty liver disease increases with the very significant increase of the fat%.Conclusion:The male prevalence rate of fatty liver is higher than female, and male Peak age incidence of fatty liver is smaller than female. Compared with their respective normal control group,the prevalence rate of fatty liver was significantly higher in the groups had hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia,hypertension.Higher weight,BMI,body fat and lower vital capacity/weight,Grip strength/weight are the main physical characteristics of patients with fatty liver.A marked increase of body fat%in a short time may lead the fatty liver to deteriorate.
