The prevalence was twice as high in men (28.1%) as in women (13.8%), and increased with age in females, and males &amp;lt;60 years of age. Multivariate analysis showed that several risk factors were profoundly associated with the prevalence of FLD, including male sex, old age, obesity, hyperlipidaemia (cholesterol or triglyceride), fasting hyperglycemia and hypertension.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>The prevalence of FLD in the Shuiguohu district of Wuhan city, central China, was shown to have increased during the 10-year period, 1995 to 2004.
