| Resumo: | [eng] Introduction and objectives: Insulin resistance (IR) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are two very frequent pathologies that are responsible for the appearance of different pathological conditions. A multitude of factors are involved in the genesis of both processes. The aim of this study was to assess the influence of various sociodemographic factors such as age, sex, social class, and tobacco consumption on IR and NAFLD. Methodology: A descriptive, cross-sectional study carried out in 418343 Spanish workers in which the relationship between sociodemographic variables and tobacco consumption with risk scales for IR, NAFLD, and liver fibrosis was assessed. Results: All the variables analyzed influence the appearance of IR, NAFLD, and liver fibrosis, especially age and sex. Being male, of advanced age, belonging to social class III, and being a smoker increased the risk of IR, NAFLD, and liver fibrosis. Conclusions: All the sociodemographic variables analyzed, and tobacco use influence the occurrence of IR, NAFLD, and liver fibrosis. |
