Serum alanine aminotransferase ( ALT ) and y - glutamyltransferase ( y - GT ) activities in north London blood donors
Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and y-glutamyltransferase (y-GT) activities were measured in over 2000 north London blood donors. The results were compared with those from the United States. The percentage of the total donor population with ALT activities above 40 IU/l in 1986 was greater than that found in our earlier studies in 1973 and 1982 (4-6% compared with 2-8% and 3 1%, respectivel...

متن کاملEffects of Carbamazepine and Valproate on Serum Aspartate Aminotransferase, Alanine Aminotransferase and Gamma - Glutamyltransferase in Children
INTRODUCTION Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological diseases in childhood and adolescence. Carbamazepine (CBZ) and valproate (VPA) have been widely used as the first generation of antiepileptic drugs (AED). AIM The aim of the study has been to evaluate and compare the effect of CBZ and VPA monotherapy on aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and gamma-gluta...
متن کاملElevated serum alanine aminotransferase and gamma-glutamyltransferase and mortality in the United States population.
BACKGROUND & AIMS Elevated serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) activities are markers of liver injury, but may also be associated with other diseases and death. In a prospective, national, population-based sample, we examined whether elevated ALT and GGT were associated with increased risk of all-cause and disease-specific mortality. METHODS Death certific...
متن کاملCoffee consumption and decreased serum gamma-glutamyltransferase and aminotransferase activities among male alcohol drinkers.
BACKGROUND Attention has long been drawn to the potentially harmful effects of coffee on health, however recent epidemiological studies have suggested unexpected, possibly beneficial effects of coffee against the occurrence of alcoholic liver cirrhosis and upon serum liver enzyme levels. METHODS We examined the potential inverse association between coffee drinking and serum concentrations of ...
