Assessment of Serum Enzymes Gamma Glutamyl Trasnferase, Aspartate Transaminase and Alanine Transaminase in Liver Diseases
Back Ground:Liver diseases are common disorders encountered in clinical practices. Investigations in liver diseases are used to detect hepatic abnormality, to measure its severity, to define it structural effect on the liver, to look for specific causes of liver diseases, assess prognosis and to evaluate therapy. Aim and Objectives:To study and compare the altered serum levels of enzymes GGT, A...
متن کاملGamma-glutamyltransferase, alanine transaminase and aspartate transaminase levels and the diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus.
OBJECTIVES To evaluate gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT), alanine transaminases (ALT) and aspartate transaminases (AST) levels and prevalent gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). DESIGN AND METHODS Random plasma glucose, GGT, ALT and AST and the 50-g glucose challenge test were done on antenatal women followed by diagnostic 3-point 75-g oral glucose tolerance test within two weeks. GDM was diagn...
متن کاملSubclinical increases in serum transaminase activities among female workers exposed to toluene at sub-OEL levels.
Despite the general belief that toluene is not very hepatotoxic under occupational conditions1,2), hepatic damage was sometimes reported among glue sniffers3-5), accident victims6) and laboratory animals7,8) exposed either to toluene or its homologue xylene. Trials are made in the present study to examine if there are any detectable changes in hepatic functions in relation to the intensity of t...
متن کاملBlood lead levels and anemia in lead exposed workers.
The effects of lead on haematological parameters were studied in 51 occupationally exposed individuals comprising of 27 lead furnace workers, 24 lead pellet handlers and 20 healthy age and service matched controls. Blood lead levels were estimated by atomic absorption spectrometer AAS-180-80 and haematological parameters by Technicon H.1 system. The lead furnace workers had highest blood lead l...
متن کاملInfluence of Immunostimmulant on Abdominal Muscle Aspartate Transaminase and Alanine Transaminase in Mice against Hepatitis B
Eight groups of male Swiss albino mice mice (6 8 weeks old; 23 26g wt) were employed to study the effect of Immunostimulant, (Immunex DS) on the level of abdominal muscle transaminases against Gen Vac B vaccine. In group I, Immunex DS (IDS) was orally administered (@ 150mg/mouse) to 10 mice, in 6 groups of mice (10 in each) IDS was orally administered @ 150mg/mouse on 0 day and Gen Vac B Vaccin...
