BCHE and tuberculosis: Ding et al found that the value of LSM was significantly correlated with ALT, ALP, cholinesterase (ChE), TB, DB, and IB.[26] Similar with previous result, we found that there existed significant linear differences of the eight factors (ALP, ALT, GGT, GLB, PLT, TB, APRI, and CAP) among the various groups, which showed that the degree of abnormal values of these indexes was frequently associated with the severity of hepatitis.
