Overview

Observational analysis found higher ALT and AST levels in female HCV patients, indicating potential gender differences in liver damage biomarkers.

Key Points

  • Infection with HCV is associated with elevated levels of ALT and AST, particularly in females.
  • Analysis showed 63% of participants tested positive for HCV, with significant age-wise variations in enzyme levels.
  • Methods included serum isolation, HCV RNA extraction using QIAamp DSP Virus Kit, and enzyme assays for ALT and AST.
  • These findings highlight the need for gender-specific considerations in assessing liver harm from HCV.
