What is the reason for high alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase?

High alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase levels are actually a way to judge and understand liver disease, because through these symptoms we can know whether we are affected by some liver diseases. If we want effective treatment, we can use some antibiotics or the patient should pay attention to develop good living and eating habits.

1. What does a high AST/ALT ratio mean? 1. The AST/ALT ratio has certain clinical guiding significance for the determination of the degree of liver fibrosis, especially for advanced liver fibrosis, and may have the value of assisting diagnosis. Medical research results show that the AST/ALT ratio gradually increases with the severity of liver fibrosis. When the AST/ALT ratio is ≥1, it has a strong significance for diagnosing early liver cirrhosis.

2. The serum AST/ALT ratio of patients with active liver cirrhosis was significantly higher than that of the other groups, and the difference was very obvious. However, there was no significant difference in the serum AST/ALT ratio between severe, moderate, mild chronic hepatitis and normal liver tissue.

3. Taking antibiotics, such as cold medicines, anti-inflammatory drugs, etc., can also cause the ratio of aspartate aminotransferase to alanine aminotransferase to be high.

4. A high ratio of aspartate aminotransferase to alanine aminotransferase indicates that the patient may have excessive drinking, fatigue, lack of sleep, sleepless nights, unhygienic diet, food poisoning, etc. For example, in patients with alcoholic liver disease, aspartate aminotransferase activity is often higher than alanine aminotransferase activity.
