title: [Prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in young patients with abdominal obesity and hypertension].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To estimate the incidence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and the factors of cardiovascular risk in young patients with abdominal obesity and hypertension compared to persons with isolated forms of these diseases.
  
  
  METHODS
  Studied 127 patients aged 18-44 years with presence of abdominal obesity and/or hypertension. The factors of cardiovascular risk were evaluated. Laboratory examination included the determination of parameters of lipid metabolism, glucose and uric acid. The liver ultrasound was processed. In 61.3% of young patients with abdominal obesity and hypertension identified laboratory and instrumental signs of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. In patients with abdominal obesity and hypertension were more prevalent family history of hypertension, smoking, dyslipidemia, mainly due to triglycerides, as well as higher levels of fasting glucose.
