Esteatosis hepática no alcohólica y su correlación con el índice de masa corporal, triglicéridos y transaminasas en los pacientes del Hospital Manuel Ygnacio Monteros de la ciudad de Loja.

Non-alcoholic hepatic steatosis is the most frequent hepatopathy and insidious development that affects people who do not consume significantly alcohol, being its prevalence high in patients with obesity, diabetes mellitus and hyperglycemia. The present study focused on the correlation of the ultrasound findings of non-alcoholic hepatic steatosis with the body mass index, transaminases and triglycerides, and the characterization according to gender and age, in a sample of 111 patients from Miguel Ignacio Monteros Hospital, through a descriptive, transversal - retrospective study during the January - August, 2016 period. Through review of individual clinical histories and laboratory tests, the female gender was predominant in 61%, with the youngest adults (40-60 Years) the age at which this pathology prevails. Alteration of amitransferases was found in 41% in the case of ALT (Alanine aminotransferase) and 37% in AST (Aspartate - aminotransferase). Hypertriglyceridemia occurs with values between 200 - 499 mg / dl in 35%; in addition, 39% of patients presented overweight and 29% Obesity Grade I. The results suggest that there is a certain degree of relationship between the variables, finding the highest percentage of cases in the moderate ultrasound grade, in addition that the progression of this Disease can be predicted through the alteration of aminotransferases, being necessary for the definitive diagnosis the hepatic biopsy. Key words: Non-alcoholic hepatic steatosis, obesity, hyperlipemia, transaminases, triglycerides, body mass index.
