Alcohol intoxication increases aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and AST/ALT ratio among children and adolescents, reflecting hepatocyte damage.63 Some studies suggest there has been a steady increase in the prevalence of ALD in adolescents and young adults in the last ...
(representing posttraumatic stress disorder, bipolar disorder, and/or schizophrenia), and history of drug use disorder (eTable in Supplement 1); laboratory test results including HCV genotype, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and platelet count; and history of HCV ...
Liver tests (LT), especially to measure AST, ALT and GGT levels, are widely used to evaluate the risk of alcohol-related liver disease (ALD). In this study, we investigated the potential genetic factors that modulate the association between LTs and alcohol consumption. We conducted a genome-...
These biomarkers are not meant to be a substitute for a comprehensive history and physical examination. Indirect alcohol biomarkers, which suggest heavy alcohol use by detecting the toxic effects of alcohol, include the following: [4] Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ...
Wait 2 to 3 weeks (I would abstain from drinking for 4 weeks to be sure) and have the doctor run another hepatic panel. If the GGTP is still elevated, you can rule out alcohol as the culprit. If the GGTP is still elevated and the AST and ALT values are also elevated, you have...
Table 1 indicated that individuals engaging in excessive alcohol consumption typically presented elevated blood pressure, increased BMI, older age, and heightened levels of GGT, ALT, HDL-C, FPG, TG, and AST. Additionally, subjects with excessive alcohol consumption had lower HbA1c levels, a higher...
Effect of alcohol, lead and vitamin E for eight weeks on AST (Aspartate amino transferase) and ALT (Alanine amino transferase) of liver tissue was evaluated in in vitro condition. When treated with lead, the AST was recorded 92.50U/L, 100.0...
The plasma levels of liver-specific enzymes were monitored before and after the 1.15 g/kg/day oral alcohol intake regime to obtain comparable data with the human study. The ALT and AST plasma levels increased from 34.6 U/L to 41.5 U/L and from 62.5 U/L to 80.3 U/L, respectively,...
