Hi there—I have a question regarding some blood work I just received (liver function tests). Here are the results:
Male / 27 years old
Total bilirubin - 9 umol/L. Reference interval: 3 - 20
Aspartate aminotransferase - 37 U/L. Reference interval: 11 - 38
Gamma-glutamyl transferase 50 U/L. Reference interval: 11 - 55
Alkaline phosphatase 58 U/L. Reference interval: 60 - 142
So, everything looks normal to me—except for that last value, which is slightly below the reference range. What does that actually signify?
