Core Tip	Investigating chronic hepatitis B (CHB) and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) was reviewed in 20 studies. The results suggest reduced NAFLD susceptibility in hepatitis B virus (HBV)-infected individuals (OR = 0.87, 95%CI = 0.69-1.08, I2 = 91.1%). In HBV patients, a positive correlation emerged between hyperlipidemia, metabolic syndrome, and indicators, such as body mass index, creatinine, uric acid, fasting blood glucose, and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance. HBV may protect from hepatic steatosis, but its occurrence is associated with metabolic syndrome and specific factors. This study describes the complex interplay between CHB, NAFLD, and its associated factors.
