What AST and ALT levels indicate liver disease? Any level of AST and ALT above the upper limit of normal (ULN) has an indication of possible liver problems, stemming from a variety of sources. What is a normal AST/ALT ratio? A normal AST/ALT ratio should be around 1.15 in healthy adul...

In obstructive jaundice and chronic hepatitis patient`s transaminase (ALT and AST) were only mildly elevated (P<0.001). 纬-glutamyl transpeptidase were significantly (P<0.000) elevated in patients with obstructive jaundice. However, in acute and chronic hepatitis the GGT level were normal or mildly...
The FIB‐4 index,5, 13 modified FIB‐4 index,14 or a combination of ARFI and FIB‐4 index may be good alternative tests.15 Finally, the usage of antiviral therapy in patients with CHB or CHC should be adjusted in the analysis because antiviral therapy might reduce the ALT level sooner ...
181 There is a reduction in visceral fat and an improvement in liver tests, including serum concentrations of AST, ALT, ferritin, and type IV collagen 7S, after treatment with Dapagliflozin by inhibiting SGLT2 (UMIN000022155 and UMIN000023574).182,183 However, administration of Dapagliflozin for ...
The level of hepatic apoptosis was determined using a TUNEL kit (Beyotime, Shanghai, China), according to the manufacturer's protocol. An optical microscope (Lecia, Wetzlar, Germany) was used to analyze and image the tissues at different magnifications. Western blot Total protein from the liver...
In this study, in an attempt to elucidate the relevance and the association between AUDIT level and health related indices such as obesity-related indices (BMI, waist circumference, body fat percentage), serum liver-enzyme levels (AST, ALT, GGT, total bilirubin) and serum lipid levels (TC, ...
The standard serum liver tests, including ALT, AST, ALP, and total bilirubin (Tbili) have been used to diagnosis and monitor DILI for decades, yet they lack specificity for hepatotoxicity and DILI. Therefore, there has been ongoing interest in discovering novel serum biomarkers that can (a) ...
