Conjugated hyperbilirubinemia occurs when bilirubin, a by-product of red blood cells, builds up in the blood. This can indicate several underlying causes, such as hepatitis, cirrhosis, or biliary ...

It can also provide levels of two different types of bilirubin: unconjugated and conjugated. Unconjugated (“indirect”) bilirubin . This is bilirubin made from the breakdown of red blood cells.

The One Beam allows for a rapid photo-metric analysis of the bilirubin total in the serum (totals of the conjugated and non-conjugated) using a capillary tube as an optical cell. The bilirubin ...

Normal conjugated bilirubin levels may further stray healthcare providers away from considering biliary disease in these patients. Here, we report an unusual case of primary choledocholithiasis in a ...

The remaining laboratory results showed severe B 12 vitamin deficiency (<117 pmol/L), total bilirubin 1.76 mg/dL, conjugated bilirubin 1.02 mg/dL, lipase 966 U/L and negative C reactive protein.

If a recent blood test shows elevated bilirubin levels, there’s a chance you could have a common and generally harmless genetic condition known as Gilbert Syndrome, which is pronounced “Jill ...

IN the development of new methods for detecting bilirubin in urine technical simplicity has generally been sacrificed for increased sensitivity and specificity. As a consequence many clinicians ...

Expert Rev of Obstet Gynecol. 2012;7(3):269-279. In summary, excess levels of urobilinogen and bilirubin in the urine may signal liver disease, and more research is needed to correlate these ...

Liver damage, or cirrhosis, may cause no symptoms in its early stages. Early signs may be nonspecific, such as nausea or fatigue. Later stages can lead to symptoms such as jaundice, itchy skin ...

† Those without notes are either nonspecific or give too many clues of the diseases that cannot be listed. ALT: Alanine aminotransferase; AST: Aspartate aminotransferase; FDG PET-CT ...
