Question 1: Why is total serum protein high when liver function is abnormal? As an indicator in liver function tests, the normal range of total serum protein is between 60 and 80g/L. Total serum protein is mainly composed of albumin and protein. When some patients have abnormal liver function, the test results will show a high level of total serum protein. It is recommended that patients must undergo further examination or systemic treatment under the advice of a doctor in order to Control the onset of the disease promptly and allow liver function to return to normal as soon as possible. Generally speaking, the reasons for high serum total protein during liver function tests can be attributed to two points. One is pathological reasons, and the other is physiological reasons. The details are as follows. 1. Pathological reasons: High serum total protein during liver function tests is common in patients with chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis, and liver cancer; high total protein in liver function tests reduces the water in the serum, causing the total protein concentration to increase; in addition, chronic Inflammation or infection, such as tuberculosis, malaria, multiple myeloma, macroglobulinemia and other diseases can also cause high total protein. 2. Physiological reasons: Physiological reasons for high serum total protein during liver function tests mainly include malnutrition, heavy drinking, irregular work and rest, frequent eating of greasy food, etc. At this time, you should pay attention to adjusting your diet, work and rest. and other habits. In general, there are many reasons for high serum total protein during liver function tests. Therefore, when serum total protein is high, you must go to a professional and regular center for a detailed examination to see what is causing it. If the total protein is high, diagnosis and treatment will be conducted based on the cause. (What are the symptoms of liver function impairment in hepatitis B patients) Hunan Armed Police Corps Hospital is the best liver disease treatment hospital in Hunan Province. It has a number of liver disease treatment technologies and various advanced medical equipment. Many well-known domestic liver disease experts are involved in liver disease examination and He has rich clinical experience in diagnosis and treatment. He can provide scientific diagnosis and treatment based on the specific reasons for high serum total protein, which has helped many patients with liver disease improve.
Question 2: What is the problem with high serum total protein? Recommendation: Serum total protein: mainly reflects the liver synthesis function and protein loss caused by kidney disease. [Reference value] 60--80g/L (6.0--8.0mg/dl) 1. Physiological increase: after strenuous exercise. 2. Pathological increase: 1) The water in the serum decreases, causing the total protein concentration to relatively increase. It is common in acute water loss that causes blood concentration (such as vomiting, diarrhea, etc.); in shock, capillary permeability changes and plasma is concentrated; in patients with chronic adrenal insufficiency, due to sodium loss and subsequent water loss, plasma also occurs concentrate. 2) Increased serum protein synthesis (mainly increased globulin). Total protein can exceed 100g/L, which is more common in patients with multiple myeloma. It is recommended that you review it after one month.
Question 3: Why is the total protein high? According to experts, total protein (TP in English) is a common indicator in liver function tests. The total protein content can be used to diagnose liver diseases. In clinical examination, many people have high total protein. So what is the reason for high total protein? What causes total protein to be high? Experts said that there are many reasons for high total protein, which should be analyzed based on the specific condition. Generally, there are two situations of physiological increase and pathological increase in total protein high score. What causes high total protein? 1. Physiologically high total protein. Physiologically high total protein is mostly caused by strenuous exercise, excessive drinking, and poor rest. 2. Pathological high total protein Pathological high total protein is clinically common in the following diseases: Recommended introduction gt; gt; The difference between hepatitis B two and a half and HBV-DNA 1. Chronic liver diseases, including autoimmune chronic hepatitis, chronic active Sexual hepatitis, cirrhosis (liver, chronic alcoholic liver disease, primary biliary cirrhosis (liver, etc.): What is the normal value of liver function total protein 2. Chronic inflammation and chronic infection: such as tuberculosis, malaria, etc. 3. M-ball Proteinemia: such as multiple myeloma, lymphoma, primary macroglobulinemia, etc. 4.

Question 4: What is the reason for the high C-reactive protein in my test? Many people find that there is often a test item called C-reactive protein in blood routine or biochemical tests for both adults and children, but most of them don’t know about C-reactive protein. What is reactive protein and what is the significance of measuring it? Director Zhang Kui of the Laboratory Department of Nanjing Gulou Hospital introduced that C-reactive protein (C-neactveprotein, referred to as CRP, hereafter referred to as CRP). As early as more than 80 years ago, two foreign scholars discovered that some patients infected with bacteria would undergo a change in the body, that is, a visible precipitation reaction between the C polysaccharides on the bacterial cell wall and the protein in the patient's serum. This protein in human serum is now called C-reactive protein. Later, it was discovered that C-reactive protein will change in the human body regardless of severe bacterial infection, burns, surgical trauma, or various inflammations.
Therefore, the clinical significance of the CRP detection value is mainly: you can tell whether it is a bacteria or a virus at a glance.
C-reactive protein can first help identify whether there is inflammation in the body. C-reactive protein can rise rapidly within hours after various acute inflammations, tissue injuries, surgical traumas, radiation injuries, etc., and has the tendency to increase exponentially. When the disease improves, it quickly drops to normal, and its increase is positively correlated with the degree of infection. Therefore, CRP is considered to be one of the most important and sensitive markers of acute inflammation in the human body. CRP is correlated with other inflammatory factors such as the total number of white blood cells, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and polymorphonuclear leukocytes, and is especially positively correlated with the total number of white blood cells. Secondly it can help identify the type of respiratory infection. CRP can be used for the differential diagnosis of bacterial and viral infections: During bacterial infection, CRP levels increase; while during viral infections, CRP does not increase or is slightly increased, so the CRP value can help doctors identify the type of respiratory tract infection and be targeted. Give medications and treatments.
In addition, C-reactive protein can also be used for rapid diagnosis of sepsis and other diseases. CRP increases rapidly in the body during sepsis, but it takes at least 48 hours to rely on blood culture. The CRP value in the body of bacterial meningitis can also increase rapidly, while the increase in other types of meningitis is not obvious. It is worth reminding that this indicator can also remind of malignant tumors. For example, most patients with malignant tumors have elevated CRP. For example, the combined detection of CRP and AFP can be used for the differential diagnosis of liver cancer and benign liver diseases. CRP measurement has positive significance in the treatment and prognosis of tumors. CRP increases before surgery and decreases after surgery, and its response is not affected by radiotherapy, chemotherapy and corticosteroid treatment, which is helpful for clinical evaluation of tumor progression.
Question 5: What is the reason for high albumin? Albumin is a common indicator in clinical liver function tests. Clinically, certain diseases can be judged based on the test results of albumin. Many people will have high albumin during examination, so what? Experts from Changsha Fangtai Liver Disease Hospital said that albumin is a type of protein that is mainly synthesized by the liver. Also called albumin, abbreviated as ALB in English, the concentration of albumin can directly reflect whether the liver is damaged or the degree of damage. Related reading: What is the normal value of albumin? Experts point out that there are many clinical reasons for high albumin. High albumin is mainly seen in relative increases caused by blood concentration, such as: severe dehydration and shock, massive bleeding, Severe burns, kidney disease, etc. In addition, albumin can also be affected by dietary protein intake and can be used as an evaluation index of individual nutritional status to a certain extent. Sometimes blood concentration can lead to a relative increase in protein concentration. Rapid water loss during diarrhea, vomiting, and high fever can also lead to an increase in albumin concentration in the serum, causing high albumin.

Question 6: What is the reason for high albumin? What are the functions of albumin? What are the reasons for high albumin? What are the functions of albumin? Yitong Wuyou.com will focus with you on: 1 , What is the reason for high albumin? Reason 1 for high albumin: High albumin is mainly seen in the relative increase caused by blood concentration, such as: severe dehydration and shock, massive bleeding, severe burns, kidney disease, etc. Reason 2 for high albumin: In addition, high albumin can also be affected by protein intake in the diet, and to a certain extent can be used as an evaluation indicator of individual nutritional status. Sometimes blood concentration can lead to a relative increase in protein concentration. Rapid water loss during diarrhea, vomiting, and high fever can also lead to an increase in albumin concentration in the serum, causing high albumin. 2. The role of albumin (1) Maintaining constant plasma colloid osmotic pressure Albumin is a protein with the largest content, smallest molecule, high solubility, and many functions in plasma. The maintenance of plasma colloid osmotic pressure mainly relies on albumin in plasma. Colloidal osmotic pressure is the main driving force for the return of interstitial fluid at the venous end into the blood vessels. When plasma albumin decreases due to pathological conditions, the colloid osmotic pressure of the plasma also decreases, which can lead to excessive water in the blood entering the tissue fluid and causing edema. (2) Transport function of plasma albumin: Plasma albumin can reversibly combine with many insoluble small-molecule organic substances and inorganic ions in the body to form easily soluble complexes, which become the transport form of these substances in the blood circulation. It can be seen that albumin is a non-specific transport protein, which is physiologically important and closely related to human health. (3) Other physiological functions of plasma albumin. The content of albumin in plasma is much higher than that of globulin, and its hydrophilic effect is greater than that of globulin. This makes the albumin in plasma play a colloid protective and stabilizing effect on globulin. . When liver dysfunction causes insufficient albumin synthesis, plasma globulin can lose its colloid protective effect and its stability decreases. The decrease in the stability of plasma globulin will seriously affect the metabolism and utilization of these substances in the body, causing corresponding symptoms. In addition, albumin is an important nutrient in the human body. Albumin is also constantly undergoing metabolic renewal in the plasma. The amino acids produced by the decomposition of plasma albumin can be used to synthesize tissue proteins, oxidized and decomposed to supply energy or converted into other nitrogen-containing substances. Recommended reading: Main physiological functions of albumin: harm caused by low levels and reasons for high levels 3. What are the dangers when albumin is low? There are many reasons for low albumin, such as colloid osmotic pressure disorder, edema, amino acids, hormones, vitamins and other organs Reduced supply and failure to excrete catabolite products in time can lead to low albumin. In clinical diagnosis and treatment, the harm of low albumin is mainly manifested in two aspects: 1. When liver function is damaged, albumin production is reduced, and the degree of reduction is parallel to the severity of hepatitis. Serum albumin concentration is reduced in patients with chronic and severe hepatitis and cirrhosis. 2. One of the functions of albumin is to nourish cells and maintain osmotic pressure in blood vessels. When albumin decreases, intravascular osmotic pressure decreases, and patients may develop ascites. Under normal circumstances, it is common for patients with liver disease to have low albumin in liver function tests, because patients with liver disease often have liver damage, resulting in reduced albumin production. Therefore, patients with liver disease should regularly check their albumin, understand the severity of their condition based on the degree of albumin reduction, and provide timely treatment to prevent the occurrence of liver diseases such as hepatic ascites and cirrhosis.
