What this test measures
The SGPT(ALT) - Serum reports the following parameters. These are this lab’s own reference ranges: the same ones your result is reported against, not a generic table. Adult values are shown; where a range differs by age, the range for your age is applied automatically when the result is released. Always read results with your doctor.
| Parameter | Reference range | Unit | Method | LOINC |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SGPT / ALT (Alanine Transaminase) | < 34 | U/L | IFCC without P5P (UV Kinetic) | 1742-6 |
Understanding your results
For the parameter below, here is what a value outside the reference range may be associated with. These are general, textbook associations: a result outside the range is not a diagnosis on its own.
| Parameter | If higher than range | If lower than range |
|---|---|---|
| SGPT / ALT (Alanine Transaminase) | A raised SGPT (ALT) is a fairly specific marker of liver-cell stress or injury, including fatty liver. | A low SGPT is generally not clinically significant. |
Reference ranges vary by laboratory, age, sex and method, and results must be interpreted together and in the context of your health. This information is educational and is not a diagnosis or medical advice, always discuss your report with your doctor.
