The value of aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase in cardiovascular disease risk assessment
OBJECTIVE Aspartate aminotransferase to alanine aminotransferase (AST/ALT) ratio, reflecting liver disease severity, has been associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the AST/ALT ratio improves established risk prediction tools in a primary care population. METHODS Data were analysed from a prospective cohort of 29 316 UK pr...
متن کاملOptimization of methods for aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase.
Conditions for accurate measurement of catalytic activity of aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase in human serum have been reinvestigated. The basic variables (kind of buffer, buffer concentration, pH, ion effects, and the influence of pyridoxal-5-phosphate) can now be considered optimized. On this basis, the kinetic parameters of both aminotransferases were determined, i.e.,...
متن کاملCorrelation of serum alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase with coronary heart disease.
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to explore the relationship between different risk factors (especially serum alanine aminotransferase [ALT] and aspartate aminotransferase [AST]) and coronary heart disease (CHD). METHODS A total of 610 inpatients were recruited. Initial coronary angiography (CAG) was performed to evaluate the severity of coronary lesions. On the basis of findings from CAG, patients...
