There are a lot of patients to the clinic after seeing the transaminases elevated very scared, there is a huge error in the understanding of transaminases, especially some bad hospitals artificially raise the value of transaminases, intimidate patients, more sales of drugs, really hateful, which I put the basic situation with the majority of patients to say. In fact, we do not judge how much transaminases are elevated by adding or subtracting, but by the number of times they are elevated, to determine how much liver cell damage. For example, ALT
62, 22 higher than normal, is less than 2 times the normal value (calculated at 40), which means that the overall liver cell damage is no more than 2%, which is different from a fever of 37.5! It is possible that rest will be fine, no need for medication at all (of course, long-term ALT low level increase (more than six months), need to specifically analyze the cause). Here I put several indicators of liver function analysis, I hope it will be helpful to the majority of patients.
