Liver Function Test Abnormalities in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Diseases: A Hospital-based Survey

摘要

BACKGROUND AND AIMSInflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are frequently associated with altered liver function tests (LFTs). The causal relationship between abnormal LFTs and IBD is unclear. The aim of our study was to evaluate the prevalence and etiology of LFTs abnormalities and their association with clinical variables in a cohort of IBD patients followed up in a single center.
