Joint association of sleep quality and physical activity with metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease: a population-based cross-sectional study in Western China

Y. Wang, Q. Zhao, et al.

This research conducted by Ying Wang, Qian Zhao, Jialu Yang, and colleagues reveals significant insights into the relationship between sleep quality and physical activity on the risk of metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) in Western China. It highlights that poor sleep and low physical activity levels contribute to higher MAFLD prevalence, emphasizing the need for public health strategies that address both factors.

Abstract
This population-based cross-sectional study in Western China investigated the joint effects of sleep quality and physical activity (PA) on metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). Poor sleep quality and physical inactivity were independently and jointly associated with increased MAFLD prevalence. Individuals with no recommended moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA) and poor sleep had the highest MAFLD risk. Improving sleep quality significantly attenuated MAFLD prevalence regardless of PA levels, while high PA levels did not fully counteract poor sleep's negative impact. Public health strategies targeting both sleep quality and PA are needed to address the rising MAFLD prevalence.
