RESEARCHES ON THE ACTIVITY OF SOME ENZYMES WITH DIAGNOSIS VALUE IN SUBJECTS SUFFERING FROM HEPATIC CIRRHOSIS

Abstract: The study discusses the experimental investigations devoted to the activity of some seric enzymes with diagnosis value in the pathology of the liver (alkaline phosphatase, alanin- and aspartat-aminotransferase, -glutamyl-transferase) in male and female persons belonging to 5 categories of age (31-40 years, 41-50 years, 51-60 years, 61-70 years and, respectively, 71-86 years) diagnosed with hepatic cirrhosis, and treated in the „Mavromati ” Districtual Hospital and the „Lux Ro ” Medical Center of Botoani. With the exception of the first category of age, where no major deviations from the physiologically normal values were noticed, all the other investigated subjects show values higher than the superior limit of the reference interval while, statistically, the values of the seric enzymes are highly significant (p<0.001), with the exception of those of aspartat-aminotransferase (in the 71-86 years group) and of -glutamyl-transferase (the 41-50 year group), which are insignificant
