Serum GGT, ALT, AST activities, levels of TP and ALB in sickle cell anaemic patients and controls in the study.

Table 1: Serum GGT, ALT, AST activities, levels of TP and ALB in sickle cell anaemic patients and controls in the study.

Parameters	Patients n = 50	Controls n = 50	t-value	p-value
GCT	28.31 ± 12.68 U/L	23.27 ± 6.95 U/L	2.5	< 0.05 (S)
ALT	29.64 ± 13.32 U/L	24.12 ± 9.66 U/L	2.4	< 0.05 (S)
AST	42.14 ± 25.10 U/L	21.30 ± 6.73 U/L	5.7	< 0.05 (S)
TP	6.18 ± 1.27 g/dL	7.58 ± 1.34 g/dL	5.4	< 0.05 (S)
ALB	4.28 ± 0.82 g/dL	5.27 ± 0.92 g/dL	6.0	< 0.05 (S)
df = 98; p < 0.05

This table shows the serum GGT, ALT and AST activities of patients with sickle cell anaemia as significantly higher (p < 0.05) while the levels of total protein and albumin of patients with sickle cell anaemia were significantly low (p < 0.05) when compared with the control subjects.
