An inventory of the 8 major reasons for the increase in alanine aminotransferase

Alanine aminotransferase, a very commonly used indicator of liver function, is very sensitive and increases when there is liver cell damage

Part 1

Physiological alanine aminotransferase is elevated

These physiological alanine aminotransferase increases, most of them are mildly elevated, after removing the cause need to be re-examined, if normal, this does not matter, will not panic! However, if the alanine aminotransferase is repeatedly elevated, which may be pathological, it is necessary to carefully look for other causes

Some pregnant women may also have a mild increase in alanine aminotransferase, and it is normal after giving birth, which is also physiological

Part 2

Viral hepatitis such as hepatitis A, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and hepatitis will cause liver damage during the onset of the disease, causing elevated

Part 3

When liver cancer and cirrhosis are active, they can also cause elevated

Part 4

Medications, which take drugs that are harmful to the liver, can also cause liver damage, causing elevation

Part 5

Other liver diseases such as alcoholic liver, fatty liver, and autoimmune hepatitis can also cause elevated

Part 6

In biliary diseases, cholecystitis, and acute onset of cholelithiasis, fever, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, jaundice, hebilirubin, and alanine aminotransferase are often elevated, especially when common bile duct stones are attacked

Part 7

Heart diseases, such as acute myocardial infarction, myocarditis, and heart failure, may also cause elevation of

Part 8

Some other infectious diseases, such as pneumonia, typhoid fever, tuberculosis, infectious mononucleosis, etc.

In short, there are many reasons for the elevation of alanine aminotransferase, there are physiological, there are pathological, there are liver itself, there are also extrahepatic causes, it is necessary to combine the specific analysis of the condition, and then do some corresponding examinations to clarify the diagnosis, imitation can be targeted treatment, in order to achieve better treatment results
