Association of Serum Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase and Ferritin with the Metabolic Syndrome
Aim. To investigate the relationship among GGT, ferritin, and the risk of metabolic syndrome. Methods. A total of 1024 eligible individuals of the Chinese Yi ethnic group were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. The presence of metabolic syndrome was determined using the revised NCEP-ATP III and CDS criteria. Odds ratios for the metabolic syndrome and its components for different groups bas...
متن کاملSerum Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase and Ferritin Synergistically Associated with the Rate of Chronic Kidney Disease
The present study investigated the effects of GGT and SF on the risk of CKD. 1024 participants (436 men and 588 women) were divided into three groups according to GGT and SF levels: group 1 (both GGT and SF not in the fourth quartile), group 2 (only GGT or SF in the fourth quartile), and group 3 (both GGT and SF in the fourth quartile). The risks of CKD in different levels of GGT and SF and in ...
متن کاملThe Association of Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase and Atrial Fibrillation
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most commonly diagnosed cardiac arrhythmia in clinical practice and is related to significant morbidity and mortality. AF etiology and thus, predictive biomarkers are currently lacking. Liver enzymes have shown a correlation to cardiovascular disease. Gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) is a liver enzyme associated with oxidative stress that is postulate...
متن کاملGamma glutamyl transferase.
Serum gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) has been widely used as an index of liver dysfunction and marker of alcohol intake. The last few years have seen improvements in these areas and advances in understanding of its physiological role in counteracting oxidative stress by breaking down extracellular glutathione and making its component amino acids available to the cells. Conditions that increas...
