DOI: 10.1016/j.eclinm.2021.101180
Abstract: Background Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) is the most commonly used serum biomarker for chronic liver diseases (CLDs) but may not accurately reflect hepatic disorders and easily underestimates hepatic fibrosis. The previously revised upper limit of normal… read more here.
