【 摘 要 】

Background & Aims: Guidelines about recommendations for amounts of exercise/physical activity are variable in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Our aim was to determine the amount of exercise that was associated with two outcomes: a) development of incident liver fat and b) resolution of baseline liver fat, at five-year follow-up. Methods: In an occupational health screening program, weekly frequency of exercise was assessed using the validated Korean version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form (IPAQ-SF). Liver fat was identified by ultrasonography (3.5 MHz probe) at baseline and at five-year follow-up. Fully adjusted Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs and 95% confidence intervals [CI]) for incident fatty liver and resolution of fatty liver at follow-up. Results: 233,676 men and women were studied between 2002 and 2014. 126,811 individuals were identified without fatty liver, and of these subjects, 29,014 subjects developed incident fatty liver during follow-up. At baseline, there were 42,536 individuals with liver fat and of these individuals, fatty liver resolved in 14,514, during follow-up. After full adjustment, compared to no exercise, exercise was associated with benefit for both outcomes; for exercise >= 5 times per week for incident fatty liver: HR 0.86 (95% CI 0.80,0.92), p < 0.001, and for resolution of fatty liver HR 1.40 (95% CI 1.25,1.55), p < 0.001. Conclusions: Moderate to vigorous exercise is beneficial in decreasing risk of development of new fatty liver or improving resolution of existing fatty liver during 5 years of follow-up. Lay summary: The amount of exercise/physical activity to benefit fatty liver disease in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is not known. In a large study of free-living people, our aim was to determine the amount of exercise that was linked with a decrease in new fatty liver and also improvement of existing fatty liver over 5 years of follow-up. Compared to no exercise, exercise >= 5 times per week (lasting at least 10 min on each occasion) was linked to a highly significantly benefit for both a decrease in new fatty liver and also improvement of existing fatty liver.
