Figure 4

Hepatic markers in patients with DKA and AKA: (a) γ-GTP; (b) AST; (c) ALT. Since patients with AKA were heavy drinkers, they had liver dysfunction. DKA patients had statistically lower values of γ-GTP, AST, and ALT than AKA patients. Abbreviations: DKA: diabetic ketoacidosis; AKA: alcoholic ketoacidosis; γ-GTP: γ-glutamyl transpeptidase; AST: aspartate aminotransferase; ALT: alanine aminotransferase.
