Overview
An elevated/reduced concentration of serum/blood/urinary/CSF/other [lab test] is diagnostic of [disease name].
OR
Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of [disease name] include [abnormal test 1], [abnormal test 2], and [abnormal test 3].
OR
[Test] is usually normal among patients with [disease name].
OR
Some patients with [disease name] may have elevated/reduced concentration of [test], which is usually suggestive of [progression/complication].
OR
There are no diagnostic laboratory findings associated with [disease name].
Laboratory Findings
- Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of primary biliary cirrhosis include:[1][2][3][4]
- Hyperbilirubinemia
- Elevated alkaline phosphatase (2–10 times upper limit of normal)
- Elevated gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT)
- Elevated serum anti-mitochondrial antibodies (AMA) in 90% more than 90% patients (titres of 1/40 or greater)
- Hyperlipidemia
- Elevated immunoglobulin M
- Elevated liver aminotransferase
- Some patients with primary biliary cirrhosis may have "nuclear-rim" and "multiple nuclear-dot" patterns, which is highly specific for primary biliary cirrhosis, particularly in AMA-negative patients.
- Some patients with primary biliary cirrhosis may have elevated antinuclear antibody (35% patients) and smooth muscle (66% patients) antibody.
