Dietary Patterns and Serum Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase in Japanese Men and Women
BACKGROUND Although specific foods and nutrients have been examined as potential determinants of serum gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) concentrations, the relationship between dietary patterns and GGT remains unknown. The present cross-sectional study aimed to determine relationships between dietary patterns and GGT concentrations, and the effects of lifestyle factors on GGT. METHODS Relatio...
متن کاملDietary Patterns and A1C in Japanese Men and Women
OBJECTIVE Dietary patterns in Western populations have been linked to type 2 diabetes, but the role of diet in Japanese remains unclear. We investigated the association between major dietary patterns and glucose tolerance status as measured by A1C in Japanese adults. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS The groups of subjects were comprised of 3,243 men and 4,667 women who participated in the baseline...
متن کاملSerum gamma glutamyl transferase and alkaline phosphatase in acute cholecystitis.
BACKGROUND The serum level of gamma glutaryl transferase and alkaline phosphatase is raised in acute calculus cholecystitis and common bile duct stone. However, the rise in serum level of these enzymes in acute cholecystitis implies stone in the common bile duct is not well studied. Thus, it may lead to retained CBD stone on one side and unnecessary CBD exploration on the other during emergency...
متن کاملAssociation between serum gamma-glutamyl transferase level and prehypertension among community-dwelling men.
Serum gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) activity is a general clinical marker of excessive alcohol consumption, and GGT reflects changes in oxidative stress and implicated in the progression of hypertension. Recent guidelines classify persons with above-optimal blood pressure (BP) but not clinical hypertension as having prehypertension for a systolic BP (SBP) of 120 to 139 mmHg and/or a diastoli...
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...
