Salivary aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase and alkaline phosphatase: possible markers in periodontal diseases?

Background: Saliva can be used as a diagnostic fluid in medicine. Components of saliva proposed as disease markers include enzymes (alkaline phosphatase, esterase, glucuronidase, aminopeptidase), immunoglobulins (IgA, IgG), and hormones (steroid hormones)...

Analysis of the components of hypertransaminasemia after liver resection

Background: The increase in plasma aspartate (AST) and alanine (ALT) aminotransferase after liver resection is multifactorial, and a major problem is the difficult quantification of the impact of each factor involved.

Methods: Regression analysis of a large series of measurements for 92 hepatectomy patients was carried out to assess in detail the postoperative evolution of AST and ALT, together with related components.

Results: The best correlate of increased AST and ALT on postoperative day 1 was the duration of surgery (T-surg) (r²=0.31 and 0.29), with a lower correlation for intraoperative liver ischemia (T-isch) (r²=0.22 and 0.17, respectively; p<0.001 for all)...
