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 ...

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 ...

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.

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

In September 2001, the AAP Subcommittee on Hyperbilirubinemia announced it was reviewing/revising the 1994 practice guidelines for hyperbilirubinemia and recommendations were published as this ...
