Meta-analyses of FibroTest diagnostic value in chronic liver disease
BACKGROUND FibroTest (FT) is a biomarker of liver fibrosis initially validated in patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC). The aim was to test two hypotheses, one, that the FT diagnostic value was similar in the three other frequent fibrotic diseases: chronic hepatitis B (CHB), alcoholic liver disease (ALD) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD); and the other, that the FT diagnostic val...
متن کاملDiagnostic Value of Serum Haptoglobin.
Serum haptoglobin has been estimated quantitatively in 25 patients with haemolytic disease, and its diagnostic value assessed by comparing the levels with those obtained in 110normal subjects, in 149 patients with other forms of anaemia, and in 37 patients with non-haematological disorders. The normal range was found to be 33 to 213 mg./100 ml.; subnormal levels were found in 80% of patients wi...
متن کاملThe Diagnostic Value of Serum Leucine Aminopeptidase.
Serum leucine aminopeptidase determination was found to be a useful screening procedure for hepatobiliary disease in jaundiced and unjaundiced patients. Values under 1,000 units are of no help in the differential diagnosis of jaundice but values above 1,000 units are highly indicative of biliary obstruction. The differentiation of intra- from extrahepatic obstruction as well as of malignant fro...
متن کاملDiagnostic value of the serum folate assay.
The diagnostic value of the serum folate assay has been assessed in 90 patients, each of whom had a macrocytic anaemia and a low serum vitamin B(12) level. Twenty-nine (32%) patients were found to have anaemia due primarily to folate deficiency. The cause of the low serum vitamin B(12) levels is uncertain in the 22 (25%) patients with normal or borderline vitamin B(12) absorption. The effect of...
متن کاملIncrease Serum Aminotransferases in Addison\'s Patients
SUMMARY Three pa ticnts admitted because of slightly increased serum amino trans fcrases were found to have Addison's disease. A review of 16 other patients with addison 's disease who had serum aminotransferase activity (aspartate aminotransferase (ASAT) and alanine aminotransferase (ALAT) J determined prior to treatment revealed one more patient with slightly increased aminotransferase acti...
