Typically elevations in liver enzymes –whereby the level of ALT elevation is higher than the level of AST – elevation could be an indicator of fatty liver or NASH.Ultrasounds can also be used for diagnosis. However, an ultrasound needs a skilled operator. In addition, the sensitivity of ...
(20.2% vs females: 8.7%,P 0.001);the difference in prevalence between the two sexes in patients 50-year-old did not reach statistical significance.Only 430 of the patients diagnosed with fatty liver had complete information;among those,increased ALT and/or AST levels were detected in only 30...
PNF is a syndrome characterized by failure of the liver to function onrevascularization. The diagnosis can be made by the presence of low or no bile production, persistent or worseningcoagulopathy, markedly elevatedliver enzymes(AST >10,000 IU), prolongedprothrombintime and INR, uncorrectable metabol...

Fibroscan results revealed that 94 patients (45.9%) had F1, 67 (32.7%) F2, 29 (14.1%) F3, and 15 (7.3%) F4 liver fibrosis. A significant correlation was found between FibroScan score and FIB-4 (r=0.572), APRI (r=0.667), and AST/ALT (r=0.251) (P<0.001). Sensitivity, ...

Aside from FibroScan, various alternative non-invasive methods have been developed for the assessment of liver fibrosis in NAFLD during the past decade, such as aspartate aminotransferase/alanine aminotransferase (AST/ALT) ratio, fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) score, and AST to platelet ratio index (APRI) [...
