Resumen:
|
Background: Currently there are no studies on ?-glutamyltransferase (?GT) levels at high altitude or on the relationship between ?GT, uric acid and several dysfunctions. The aim of the study was to determine the association between serum ?GT and uric acid levels in subjects at high altitude with hemoglobin, glycemia, and lipidic, hepatic and kidney markers. Methods: The present study was performed in 487 subjects aged 30-75 years living at 4100 m of altitude. A venous blood sample was drawn from each subject to measure hemoglobin, glucose, and lipid levels and markers of liver and kidney function. Quartiles for serum ?GT and uric acid were calculated and associated with different physiological variables. A p-value
