Hepatogomax Improves Serum Albumin and Transaminase Enzyme Activity Levels in Sprague Dawley Rats Liver Cirrhosis

Sedation improves early outcome in severely septic Sprague Dawley rats

INTRODUCTION Sepsis, a systemic inflammatory response to infective etiologies, has a high mortality rate that is linked both to excess cytokine activity and apoptosis of critical immune cells. Dexmedetomidine has recently been shown to improve outcome in a septic cohort of patients when compared to patients randomized to a benzodiazepine-based sedative regimen. We sought to compare the effects ...

Serum transaminase levels in liver disease.

The process of transamination takes place in many tissues in the body and is a fundamental mechanism in the metabolism of amino-acids. Basically it consists of the reversible transfer of an amino group from an amino-acid to a keto acid, providing a link between protein and carbohydrate metabolism. Although there appear to be a multitude of transamination systems, each catalysed by a specific en...

Comparative Study on Serum Enzyme Levels in Cirrhosis of Liver and Alcoholic Liver Disease

Patients with chronic liver diseases are asymptomatic or have only vague non-specific symptoms. Effective medical treatments for chronic liver disease (before cirrhosis is established) are becoming increasingly available and since abnormal LFTs may be the only indication of this diseases. Aims: comparative study on serum Enzyme levels in various liver diseases. Discussion: serum Alkaline phosph...

Serum thyroid hormone levels in liver cirrhosis.

Levels of thyroid hormones, serum thyroxine, triiodothyronine (T3), free thyroxine (FT4), free triiodothyronine (FT3) and thyrotropin (TSH) were measured in 55 patients with liver cirrhosis using radioimmunoassay techniques. Results were compared with 78 controls. The mean serum concentration of T3, FT3 and FT4 were significantly decreased in cirrhotics, while no significant change was noted in...
