Correlation between Body Fat Mass and Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

The study analyzes the impact of a body fat mass onto body composition, as muscle mass, water mass, and bone mass of a body, and also onto such physical parameters, as the basal metabolic ratio (BMR), metabolic age, a bioimpedance in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The research included 58 people, of them 32 patients with NAFLD. There were studied anthropometrical indicators, as age, weight, body mass index, also parameters of body composition. In patients group in compare with control group there were significantly raised a visceral fat rating on 3.1 units (р<0.0001), a metabolic age on 9.6 years (р<0.0001), a basal metabolic rate on 209 kkcal/day (р=0.004), a bioimpedance on 25.7 Ohm (р=0.04). In control group in compare with patients group there were significantly raised the percentage of total body water on 9.9% (р<0.0001), the percentage of muscle mass on 13.1% (р<0.0001), and the percentage of bone mass on 0.7% (р<0.0001). BMR starts to be slowed down when fat mass accumulation in organism is between 30 and 40%, and after 40% the BMR starts to go down. Bioimpedance values increases with rises of fat mass in percentage.
