2. Cholestasis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cholestasis

   Cholestasis can be suspected when there is an elevation of both 5'-nucleotidase and ALP enzymes. [77] With a few exceptions, the optimal test for cholestasis would be elevations of serum bile acid levels. [78] However, this is not normally available in most clinical settings necessitating the use of other biomarkers.

3. Liver function tests - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liver_function_tests

   Liver function tests (LFTs or LFs), also referred to as a hepatic panel or liver panel, are groups of blood tests that provide information about the state of a patient's liver. [1] These tests include prothrombin time (PT/INR), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), albumin , bilirubin (direct and indirect), and others.

4. Neonatal cholestasis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neonatal_cholestasis

   If imaging and lab results are not sufficient in determining a cause for neonatal cholestasis, genetic testing is available to determine if the cause is a genetic disease. [4] Liver biopsy performed through the skin can be completed if initial evaluation does not indicate neonatal cholestasis but is clinically suspected.

5. 5'-nucleotidase - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5'-nucleotidase

   In other words, the test is used to determine if elevated protein levels are due to skeletal damage or liver damage. [12] Normal levels of 5’nucleotidase are 2-17 units per liter. [13] Elevated levels may indicate cholestasis, destruction of liver cells, hepatitis (liver inflammation), liver ischemia, a liver tumor, or use of liver-damaging ...

6. Elevated alkaline phosphatase - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elevated_alkaline_phosphatase

   Damage to these tissues causes the release of ALP into the bloodstream. Elevated levels can be detected through a blood test. Elevated alkaline phosphate is associated with certain medical conditions [3] or syndromes (e.g., hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation syndrome, HPMRS). It serves as a significant indicator for certain medical ...

7. Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intrahepatic_cholestasis...

   Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP), also known as obstetric cholestasis, cholestasis of pregnancy, jaundice of pregnancy, and prurigo gravidarum, [1] is a medical condition in which cholestasis occurs during pregnancy. [2] It typically presents with itching and can lead to complications for both mother and fetus. [2]
