It is widely used for the measurement of gastric emptying rate in breath testing or as a surrogate marker of liver function [18 20].
Accordingly, the strongest induction of lipid droplet formation was observed in the septic hyperglycemic group, where the ADRP expression, as a marker of liver injury, was significantly elevated.
Bilirubin, a breakdown product of heme metabolism, has been shown to be protective against cardiovascular mortality; however, it is also a marker of liver function.
The statistical analyses allowed us to identify the best score of organ failures, the best marker of liver failure, and the most relevant organ replacement therapy to predict in-ICU mortality.
We observed no significant changes in the plasma levels of ALT (marker of liver function) or BUN (sensitive indicator of kidney damage) after oral administration of the silica particles in treated mice compared with control mice (Figure 2B,C).
We compared the basal levels and responses of hyaluronic acid, a marker of liver fibrosis, and liver transaminases to postmenopausal hormone therapy in women with (n = 20) and without (n = 20) a history of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy.
We developed a non-invasive algorithm to stage fibrosis using non-parametric, machine learning methods designed for predictive modeling, and incorporated an invariant genetic marker of liver fibrosis risk.
Chronically infected individuals with persistently elevated serum alanine aminotransferase, a marker of liver damage, and HBV DNA levels are candidates for therapy.
Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) is a marker of liver injury.
Levels of alanine aminotransferase, a marker of liver health, were not affected by age or treatment.
Serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), a marker of liver function, were evaluated (Fig. 9A).
