| pubmed-article:10540149 | pubmed:abstractText | The mortality rate associated with acute mesenteric ischaemia (AMI) remains high. Diagnosis is frequently confounded by the non-specific history and physical signs, in conjunction with the absence of a reliable biological assay. Glutathione S-transferase (GST) is an enzyme with a crucial role in cellular homoeostasis, the alpha isoenzyme of which is highly specific to small bowel and liver. This study assessed alphaGST as a marker for AMI. | lld:pubmed |
