liver functional tests due to inflammatory process which induced by cholecystitis might changed and some clinicians suggested that these changes might help us to stone prediction in common bile ducts and decrease hazards of performing ercp and other invasive procedures. present study was performed for assessment of role of liver functional test in diagnosis of common bile duct stone in patients...

the liver is a multifactorial organ which is involved in a number of critical excretory, synthetic and metabolic functions. although the term 'liver function test' is commonly used, it is imprecise since many of the tests, such as transaminase, do not measure liver function. therefore, these tests should be referred to as 'liver enzyme tests', and 'liver function tests' should be the term used ...

background: occupational lead poisoning is common in workers of some industries, but lead hepatotoxicity has rarely been reported. several animal studies have revealed lead induced liver damage but clinical studies concerning the manifestations of lead induced liver toxicity in humans are scares. this study was designed to investigate the clinical manifestations and pathological parameters of h...

Silver-cobalt nanoparticles are used in medicine. In this study, the effects of silver-cobalt nanoparticles on functional tests and liver tissue changes in adult male rats were investigated. 28 adult male Wistar rats weighing 180-220 g were divided into 4 groups of 7. Control group, Experimental group1 received 25mg / kg of silver-cobalt nanoparticles (AgCo NPs) in which silver nanoparticle (Ag...

conclusions any discrepancy between histopathologic changes in time-zero biopsies and pattern of early liver laboratory alterations may be considered as a warning for causes other than pri. objectives the aim of this study was to show the correlation between histopathologic changes of pri and the alterations in liver tests in the early post-transplantation period. materials and methods between ...

background:methotrexate (mtx) is one of the most commonly used disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (ra) which can be associated with toxic effects on different organs. this study was designed to investigate the hepatotoxic effects in ra patients treated with mtx. methods: in this cross-sectional observational study, ra patients who received standard do...
