Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and alcoholic liver disease (ALD) are serious health problems. Features of liver steatosis (LS) due to NAFLD and ALD in rural areas, including lipid metabolism indicators, depending on body mass index (BMI), have not been thoroughly studied.Aim. To study the features of lipid metabolism in residents of rural area in LS due to NAFLD and ALD depending on the BMI.Materials and Methods: 1152 residents of a rural therapeutic site were surveyed. Lipidograms and BMI were analyzed in patients with LS at NAFLD and ALD.Results. There were no patients with a reduced BMI in the rural medical site. Persons with BMI ≥ 25 among patients with LS on the background of NAFLD (98.2 %) are significantly more frequent than on the background of ALD (55.1 %) (p 0.05). Patients with LS of ALD with an increased BMI were older than those with a normal index (p 0.05). Triglyceride levels (TG) and atherogenic coefficient (AC) were significantly higher (p < 0.05 in both cases) in LS with ALD than in patients with NAFLD.Findings. Disorders of lipid metabolism were found in patients with LS with both increased BMI and normal. At the rural therapeutic site, patients with LS due to ALD have more pronounced lipid metabolism disorders than those ones with NAFLD, regardless of BMI.
