GPT and blood coagulation disease: After excluding chronic hepatic disease, both alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase levels were significantly increased (p < .0001) in patients with burn-induced coagulopathy (129 IU/L ± 524; 210 U/L ± 1,127) compared to only mild elevations in those without burn-induced coagulopathy (50.9 IU/L ± 224; 71.8 U/L ± 581).
