Abstract: Objective To analyze the prevalence and related risk factors of metabolism-related fatty liver disease among oil workers,and to provide a basis for the prevention and control of metabolism-related fatty liver disease among oil workers. Methods Employees of Xinjiang Oilfield Company who underwent annual health examination at Jewel Flower Hospital in Changji Prefecture from June to December 2023 were selected as the survey subjects for questionnaire survey and health examination.The risk factors for metabolism-related fatty liver disease were analyzed using χ2 test and logistic regression. Results A total of 1 252 subjects were included in the study,including 884 males and 368 females,and the prevalence of metabolism-related fatty liver disease was 37.62%. The results of multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that males(OR=0.314),length of service(10-<20 a:OR=2.378,20-<30 a,OR=3.944,≥30 a,OR=3.670),high temperature exposure(OR=1.931),physical exercise(OR=1.605),labor intensity(IV labor intensity OR=4.924),alcohol consumption(current alcohol consumption:OR=1.475),alanine aminotransferase abnormality(OR=2.683),high-density lipoprotein abnormality(OR=2.871),low-density lipoprotein abnormality(OR=1.319),hemoglobin abnormality(OR=1.445),and uric acid abnormality(OR=1.804) were all influencing factors of metabolism-related fatty liver disease(all P<0.05). Conclusion The prevalence of metabolic fatty liver disease among oil workers was high,and factors such as gender,length of service,exposure to high temperature,physical exercise,work intensity,alcohol consumption,alanine aminotransferase abnormality,high-density lipoprotein abnormality,low-density lipoprotein abnormality,hemoglobin abnormality,and uric acid abnormality were all influencing factors.Relevant departments should strengthen the health management ofmetabolism-related fatty liver disease.
