Archives of Health Investigation(2021)
Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to associate the presence of non-alcoholic hepatic steatosis diagnosed by ultrasound (USG) with the levels of physical activity. It was a clinical, prospective and survey type study, with data collected at an ultrasound reference center. The data collection was divided into three stages: application of questionnaires, with emphasis on the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), in its short version; measurements of anthropometric values and abdominal USG examination. The statistical analysis was performed using software R, version 3.6.1. The study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee. 119 patients of both sexes, aged between 18 and 70 years old, were analyzed, and 06 met the exclusion criteria. It was shown that 59.29% of patients had the diagnosis of non-alcoholic liver steatosis. Of these, 59.7% were sedentary. It was concluded that physical inactivity has a significant association with the presence of fatty infiltration in the liver.
