Detection rate and influencing factors of gallstones in the physical examination population of urban Baise City,Guangxi
Objective To investigate the detection rate of gallstones and their influencing factors in the physical examination population of urban Baise city,Guangxi.Methods Using convenience sampling,we conducted a retrospective cross-sectional analysis of 5 294 individuals who underwent health check-ups in three urban hospitals in Baise city,Guangxi,from November 2020 to June 2021.We collected demographic data,imaging results(abdominal ultrasound)and laboratory examination findings.The detection rate of gallstones was statistically analyzed,and relevant blood biochemical indicators were compared between groups with and without gallstones.A binary logistic regression model was used to analyze factors influencing gallstone occur-rence.Results A total of 391 cases of gallstones were detected in this survey,with a detection rate of 7.39%.Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified the following independent factors influencing gall-stone formation:age(OR=1.028,P<0.001),BMI(OR=1.480,P<0.001),ALP(OR=1.005,P=0.022),TG(OR=0.901,P=0.006),HDL-C(OR=0.635,P=0.014),SBP(OR=1.026,P<0.001)and comorbid fatty liver(OR=1.301,P=0.040).Conclusion The detection rate of gallstones is relatively high in the physical examination population of urban Baise City,Guangxi.Advanced age,obesity,abnormal liver function,dyslipidemia and comorbid fatty liver are the high-risk factors for gallstone formation.
