“…Our findings are consistent with previous studies conducted by Alhawish et al and Sette and Lope. 13,14 Our study also demonstrated that the mean serum AST and ALT levels were significantly lowered when the severity and clinical stages of CKD is increased, which isin line with several prior reports [ 12 , 14 , 15 , 26 , 27 ]. The strong positive correlations between the serum levels of AST and ALT with eGFR in the current study indicate that as the severity of CKD increases, the mean values of aminotransferases significantly decreased.…”

“…However, there are some suggested mechanisms by which aminotransferases are reduced as the severity of the CKD is increased. The most common proposed causes are vitamin B 6 deficiency [ 29 ], an accumulation of lactate and uremic toxins [ [30] , [31] , [32] ], induction of hepatocyte growth factors (HGFs), stimulation of interferon-α [ 27 , 33 ], hemodilution caused by water retention, and accelerated clearance of aminotransferase in CKD patients undergoing dialysis [ 15 , 31 , 34 ].Hence, further large-scale studies are required to understand the mechanism of the lowering of liver enzymes in CKD patients.…”

“…Our study reported mean ALT (19.0 -54.0) in hemodialysis group and for non-hemodialysis CKD group it was (21.0 -45.0) with (P=0.326) which is not significant, and for AST it was (22.0 -48.0) in hemodialysis patients and in nonhemodialysis CKD group patents it was (16.0 -42.0) with significant value (p<0.001). This result may be due to that IBS has an impending adverse effect on serum liver enzymes AST and its components possibly due to its effect on nutrient absorption, food digestion, or dietary pattern (Gadour, et al, 2021) [12] against to our study (Shittu, M. et al, 2014) [33] , it reported mean ALT (7.1± [30] Hypertension was significantly higher in patients with IBS than those without, HTN in IBS patients was 34 (57.6%) but in those without IBS were 14 (34.1%).…”

“…Two studies with large sample sizes have suggested that the cutoff value should be defined by considering both gender and the body mass index (15,18). In accordance with the previous reports that have highlighted the importance of gender in the transaminases concentration (19), in this study also we considered this factor; in total, 639 males and 477 females were investigated.…”

“…According to the findings of Mujeeb et al (2014) and Noha et al (2016) (19,20), that investigated both males and females, transaminase levels were significantly lower when comparing each dialysis (CAPD-HD) group with the control group (P < 0.0001). As found by the present study, the AST level was significantly higher in the control group than the dialysis groups (P = 0.0001).…”
