Abstract

Abstract: The concern of NAFLD is its complications which can progress to cirrhosis and liver failure. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the risk factors for NAFLD which could facilitate any efforts to reduce its prevalence. This study aimed to determine the risk factors for NAFLD, especially in adulthood. This was a literature review study using three databases, namely Clinical Key, Pubmed, and ScienceDirect. The keywords used were Risk Factors of NAFLD in adult. The results obtained 13 articles to be reviewed. Many risk factors for NAFLD in adulthood inter alia: increased score HOMA-IR, PNPLA3 GG gene, presence of serum antibodies, villagers with a family history of metabolism disorder, serum selenium level ≥130 g/L, sleep duration of more than 8 hours, high pre-pregnancy maternal body mass index, various types of gene including PNPLA3, GKCR, TM6SF2, HSD17B13, MBOAT7, PPP1R3B, IRGM and LPIN1, consumption of sugar-rich drinks, increased SUA levels, obesity, pre-diabetes, and excessive food intake during lactation. In conclusion, there is a wide variety of risk factors for NAFLD in adults.
