Plasma vitamin B12 titres as indicators of disease severity and mortality of patients with alcoholic hepatitis. Alcohol and alcoholism (Oxford, Oxfordshire), 1987, Volume: 22, Issue:1 Patients with alcoholic hepatitis with plasma B12 levels above 800 pg/ml have overt clinical manifestations of liver disease including severe hepatocellular damage. High plasma B12 levels significantly correlate (P less than 0.0001) with standard liver function tests, e.g. bilirubin, cholylglycine, alkaline phosphatase, AST and prothrombin time as an index of the severity of hepatic damage. Decrease in plasma B12 to normal titres implies a decrease in the severity of alcoholic liver disease, whereas increased plasma B12 levels relate to increased severity and mortality.

Plasma vitamin B12 titres as indicators of disease severity and mortality of patients with alcoholic hepatitis.

Alcohol and alcoholism (Oxford, Oxfordshire), 1987, Volume: 22, Issue:1

Patients with alcoholic hepatitis with plasma B12 levels above 800 pg/ml have overt clinical manifestations of liver disease including severe hepatocellular damage. High plasma B12 levels significantly correlate (P less than 0.0001) with standard liver function tests, e.g. bilirubin, cholylglycine, alkaline phosphatase, AST and prothrombin time as an index of the severity of hepatic damage. Decrease in plasma B12 to normal titres implies a decrease in the severity of alcoholic liver disease, whereas increased plasma B12 levels relate to increased severity and mortality.
