Title: [Biological disorders of alcoholic origin]. Author: Stoffels G, Pelc I, Brauman J, Verbanck M. Journal: Acta Psychiatr Belg; 1975 Mar; 75(2):173-81. PubMed ID: 1233871. Abstract: Chronic alcoholism tends to alter the serum levels of numerous blood components. In comparing the serum levels of these elements in a noncirrhotic chronic alcoholic patient after withdrawal, the authors determined a characteristic biological table. The serum factors demonstrating a significant difference after the withdrawal of alcohol were as follows: total cholesterol, triglycerides, total lipids, total bilirubin, SGOT, SGPT, alkaline phosphatase, serum iron, uric acid, hematocrit and the number of red blood cells. It is noteworthy that these tests are those of routine and can be performed in any modestly equipped laboratory.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
