Question

Serum amylase (2,152 mmol/L)

Lipase (39,346 mmol/L)

Serum triglyceride (38 mmol?L)

AST (1265 U/L)

ALT (1232 U/L)

Alkaline phosphatase (185mmol/L)

What is the normal range for each of these values?

Answer 1

1.

Serum amylase (2,152 mmol/L) :-

It is in a very high range because the normal value of Serum amylase is 30 - 140 U/L.

The result indicates pancreatitis.

2.

Lipase (39,346 mmol/L) :-

It is in high range because the normal value of Lipase is 5 - 60 U/L.

The result indicates pancreatitis.

3.

Serum triglyceride (38 mmol/L) :-

It is in high range because the normal value of Serum triglyceride is less than 1.7 mmol/L.

The increased level of Serum triglyceride increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and PAD.

4.

AST (1265 U/L) :-

It is in high range because the normal value of AST (Aspartate aminotransferase) is 100 - 200 U/L.

The result indicates hepatitis or other liver diseases.

5.

ALT (1232 U/L) :-

It is in high range because the normal value of ALT (Alanine aminotransferase) is 20 - 35 U/L.

The result indicates hepatitis or other liver diseases.

6.

Alkaline phosphatase (185mmol/L) :-

It is in high range because the normal value of Alkaline phosphatase is 20 - 140 U/L.

The result indicates diseases of the liver and gall bladder.
