网页2022年12月11日 · Hyperamylasemia refers to elevated serum amylase levels. It is most commonly observed and evaluated in patients with acute pancreatitis to confirm the diagnosis. However, hyperamylasemia may also be associated with a …
Hyperamylasemia: Background, Pathophysiology, Etiology - Medscape
网页Amylase is a digestive enzyme that normally acts extracellularly to cleave starch into smaller carbohydrate groups and, finally, into monosaccharides, by hydrolysis of the internal...
Hyperamylasemia: Exploring the Causes, Symptoms, Diagnosis, …
网页2023年7月16日 · Hyperamylasemia is characterized by elevated levels of amylase in the blood. By understanding the causes, recognizing the symptoms, seeking appropriate medical evaluation, and addressing the underlying condition, individuals with hyperamylasemia can effectively manage their condition.
Approach to the patient with elevated serum amylase or lipase
网页2024年9月11日 · We recommend estimating lipase levels alone for the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis as it is more sensitive than amylase, lasts longer, and is elevated in conditions like hypertriglyceridemia where amylase may be normal [3,4]. However, amylase levels continue to be frequently ordered concurrently [5].

网页2022年12月11日 · Hyperamylasemia refers to an elevated serum amylase level beyond the upper limit of normal (the normal range is typically 30 U/L to 110 U/L). Amylase is 1 of the digestive enzymes that is designed to act intracellularly. Its function is to break down starch into smaller carbohydrate units, yielding monosaccharides in the end.

Hyperamylasemia - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
网页Hyperamylasemia is nonspecific, and although elevations may indicate pancreatitis, they also may be seen in more life-threatening entities, such as mesenteric ischemia. The presence of blood in the urine may be seen in patients who have nephrolithiasis or urinary tract infection, but it also may be found in cases of appendicitis, diverticulitis ...

网页2023年11月12日 · Cases of amylase-producing multiple myeloma have been described. Increased amylase activity in most patients results from salivary-type hyperamylasemia—sialyl salivary type. A common feature of the myeloma cell lines associated with hyperamylasemia is the presence of a chromosome 1 translocation, which harbors the gene for amylase.
网页Hyperamylasemia that persists for weeks or months without apparent cause is often challenging and not uncommon in clinical practice. Chronic asymptomatic hyperamylasemia, based on ethnic and age appropriate reference range, can be further classified into
Hyperamylasaemia: not the usual suspects | The BMJ
网页2005年10月13日 · Introduction. Interpretation of abnormally high serum amylase activity is not always straightforward. Sometimes, as here, patients are erroneously labelled as having pancreatitis despite the absence of clinical features to support this diagnosis. Such assumptions may affect the interpretation of investigations.
