We have studied the results of 10 hepatic tests with multivariate linear discriminant analysis in 44 normal subjects and 88 cirrhotic patients. The results prove that the functional tests with major diagnostic power re those that analyse the functional reserve of the liver, basically the clearance and transport maximum of bromsulphalein. Both give us a diagnostic error of 1.2% and the addition ...

conclusions it seems that surrogate liver function tests and adipocytokine levels were correlated with the histologic findings of the liver. objectives the aim of the study was to evaluate the correlation between serum adipocytokines and the histologic findings of the liver in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld). patients and methods this case-control study was performed on ...

results abnormal liver function test was detected in cf patients. as well, liver sonogram was abnormal in approximately one-third of the patients. this study showed a higher prevalence of biochemical abnormality in patients with abnormal livers ultrasonography. conclusions noninvasive paraclinical evaluation methods could be recommended in the patients with cf for early detection of silent live...

Liver function tests are of critical importance for the management of patients with severe or terminal liver disease. They are also used as prognostic tools for planning liver resections. In recent years many transport systems have been identified that also transport substances employed in liver function tests. Such substances include endogenous bilirubin or exogenously administered indocyanine...
