Liver function tests and liver injury - focusing on AST/ALT and PLT count

compactifications and function spaces on weighted semigruops

chapter one is devoted to a moderate discussion on preliminaries, according to our requirements. chapter two which is based on our work in (24) is devoted introducting weighted semigroups (s, w), and studying some famous function spaces on them, especially the relations between go (s, w) and other function speces are invesigated. in fact this chapter is a complement to (32). one of the main fea...

Abnormal Liver Function Tests

LFTs are not specific to specific systems or disease processes, yet abnormalities may indicate significant or serious disease. Interpreting abnormal LFTs and trying to diagnose any underlying liver disease is a common scenario in Primary Care. Single abnormalities in LFTs are difficult to localise and diagnose [2] . However, the pattern of abnormalities tests helps determine origin of the issue...

Abnormal Liver Function Tests:

Serum levels of aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase that exceed 1000 IU/L indicate acute viral hepatitis (A, B and, rarely, C), acute drug toxicity (eg, acetaminophen overdose or isoniazid hepatotoxicity), or ischemic liver injury. In chronic hepatitis (ie, hepatitis B or C or autoimmune), values range from mildly elevated to usually less than 400 IU/L. Elevated levels of al...

Liver Function Tests

The liver may be regarded as a system of branching bile ducts which terminate in numerous blind tubules, the bile canaliculi. The walls are formed by the liver cells, which are externally in contact with the capillaries of the portal venous system and the hepatic arterial system: these cells are homogeneous and show no obvious signs of differentiation or specialization. But in spite of its anat...
