Abstract: This paper aims to exploring the Connection between Fatty Liver Disease and Abnormal Liver Function in Iraq, where a cross-sectional study was conducted based on the results found in the medical records of several different hospitals in Iraq for 150 patients. This study was designed to combine qualitative and quantitative research, and all demographic data were collected, and the study will be conducted over a period of six months, with the initial phase commencing upon ethical approval. Patients who did not attend blood sampling and data collection appointments had a history of viral hepatitis B or C, had a history of chronic alcoholism determined by the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Questionnaire (AUDIT), and had any of the following conditions: autoimmune hepatitis; Wilson's disease; hereditary hemochromatosis. These findings highlight the fact that specific public health initiatives must be put in place to address the increasing burden of FLD in Iraq. Early intervention, better access to health care, and lifestyle changes are crucial for altering the progression caused by this condition and preventing its transition to more serious liver disorders. In an effort to enhance injury prevention and treatment methods, future research will focus on genetic predisposition and its consequences for long-term considerations of FLD among the Iraqi population
