Hello,
With the question “What is the effect of men with ALT 88.52? , the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Enzyme ALT (also known as GPT) is found mainly in the liver while AST (also known as GOT) is found both in the liver and in other organs such as muscle, heart, In liver parenchymal cells, ALT is present only in the cytoplasm (cell fluid) while AST is present in both cytoplasm (20%) and mitochondria (80%). .
For AST and ALT tests, the test's reference range is as follows:
AST (GOT) remembers more than 50 U/L for men and less than 35 U/L for women. ALT (GPT) is less than 50 U/L for men and less than 35 U/L for women. Cholesterol is a fat, also known as a lipid, that is produced and used by the body for vital activities. The organ responsible for the production of this fat is the liver, which supplies the body's needs. The reference range of the blood cholesterol test is as follows:
Normal: Less than 5.2 Near High: 5.2 - 6.2 High: Greater than 6.2 So with your results, the ALT (GPT) level is slightly increased, the Cholesterol level is slightly increased. in the blood at near-high levels. Causes can be caused by:
Unhealthy lifestyle and activities, drinking a lot of alcohol (you can recommend an additional test of GGT index to determine if the liver is really damaged by alcohol or not), as well as using too much high cholesterol foods, especially saturated fats and trans fats such as: fast food, fried greasy foods, processed foods, red meat.
