ABSTRACT
Introduction and aim. The impact of type of liver disease on parity rates hasn’t been described. Our aim was to assess the
parity rates among women with CLD.
Material and methods. The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey-III (1988-
1994) data were used to identify adult female participants with a diagnosis of CLD. Participants were asked about their reproductive
health status. Parity was defined as having at least one live birth. Hepatic ultrasound, serologic, medical examination and clinical
data were available to determine the presence and type of CLD. Body mass index (kg/m
2) was divided into 3 categories (‹ 30; 30-
35; 36+).
Results. A total of 3,502 (865 NAFLD, 737 other CLD, 1,901 control) subjects were included. Patients with NAFLD were
more likely to have at least one live birth than patients with other CLD and controls (77% in NAFLD
vs. 72% in controls).
Multivariate analysis revealed that presence of CLD other than NAFLD (OR: 0.46 [95% CI, 0.34-0.63]) and having a college or
higher degree (OR: 0.48 [95% CI, 0.34-0.68]) were negatively associated while having low income (OR: 11.06 [95% CI, 6.86-17.82])
and being African American (OR: 3.93 [95% CI, 2.59-5.98]) were positively associated with having at least one live birth.
Conclusions.
This study revealed that patients with CLD other than NAFLD were less likely to have at least one live birth. NAFLD and
obesity were associated with higher rates of live births which can potentially be explained by weight gain post live birth leading to obesity
and its associated-NAFLD.
