Table 1.
Fibronectin, albumin, and liver enzymes found to be similar when biochemical parameters were compared for acute hepatitis patients according to the etiologic agent (A, B, C). The results of all parameters were non-significant
| Acute Hepatitis A (n = 12) | Acute Hepatitis B (n = 4) | Acute Hepatitis C (n = 4) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fibronectin (μg/mL) | 106.7 (SD 42.1) | 126.0 (SD 48.1) | 146.1 (SD 37.5) |
| AST (U/L) | 1130.33 (SD 1131.46) | 982.17 (SD552.08) | 373.60 (SD 205.06) |
| ALT (U/L) | 1713.33 (SD 11162.18) | 1702.00 (SD 828.18) | 736.00 (SD 371.40) |
| LDH (U/L) | 1212.22 (SD 1934.98) | 975.33 (SD 485.16) | 485.60 (SD 115.27) |
| GGT (U/L) | 140.11 (SD 43.67) | 108.50 (SD 27.60) | 112.40 (SD 24.47) |
| ALP (U/L) | 141.33 (SD 24.52) | 188.33 (SD 95.81) | 177.80 (SD 39.33) |
| ALB (g/dL) | 3.25 (SD 0.22) | 3.23 (SD 0.42) | 3.08 (SD 0.23) |
Abbreviations: albumin = ALB; alkaline phosphatase = ALP; alanine aminotransferase = ALT; aspartate aminotransferase = AST; gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase = GGT; lactate dehydrogenase = LDH.
