Introduction and Objectives: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) diagnosis requires a liver biopsy, which is inapplicable to large populations. Alternatively, NAFLD can be detected indirectly by non-invasive methods such as Fatty Liver Index (FLI) and Lipid Accumulation Product (LAP). Thus, the prevalence of NAFLD and its association with lifestyle habits (e.g., physical activity) can be studied within populations. This study aimed to (i) estimate the prevalence of NAFLD by FLI and LAP in the adult Chilean population and (ii) determine the association between the presence of NAFLD and physical activity levels. Materials and Methods: We analyzed the National Health Survey of Chile 2016-2017. Individuals meeting these criteria were included: 21-75 years old; absence of hepatitis B/C, HIV, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, syphilis, chancre, and gonorrhea; alcohol consumption |
