Abstract
- There is a growing interest in the co-management of metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and its metabolic comorbidities. However, there is insufficient epidemiological data regarding MAFLD and its metabolic comorbidities in China. This study aims to investigate the prevalence and risk factors of MAFLD and its metabolic comorbidities. 9171 participants were recruited in this cross-sectional study, utilizing a multistage, stratified sampling method. All participants underwent a comprehensive assessment. The diagnosis of MAFLD was based on vibration-controlled transient elastography (VCTE). The prevalence of MAFLD and its metabolic comorbidities was calculated. Binary and ordinary logistic regressions were conducted. The overall weighted prevalence of MAFLD was 21.18%. Of the 2081 adults with MAFLD, 1866 (89.67%) had more than one metabolic comorbidity, and only 215 (10.33%) did not have comorbidity. Among the population with MAFLD, the prevalence of dyslipidemia, hypertension, hyperuricemia, and diabetes was 67.47%, 43.73%, 39.10%, and 33.88%, respectively. Advanced age, male gender, overweight/obesity, excessive alcohol consumption, and elevated HOMA-IR levels were positively correlated with the number of MAFLD-related metabolic comorbidities. A significant proportion of individuals diagnosed with MAFLD presented with metabolic comorbidities. Therefore, engaging in the co-management of MAFLD and its metabolic comorbidities is imperative. • Only 10.33% of the individuals diagnosed with MAFLD did not have metabolic comorbidity. • Overweight/obesity was positively associated with the number of MAFLD-related metabolic comorbidities. • MAFLD with one comorbidity had the highest rates of dyslipidemia, followed by hypertension, hyperuricemia, and diabetes.
