The association between working hours and working type with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: results from the NHANES 1999-2014.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Previous research has indicated that long working hours are connected to a variety of health conditions, including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, this association which has been observed in more population is limited. Our research is designed to evaluate the association between working hours, working type, and NAFLD.
