R Factor for Liver Injury - MDCalc R Factor for Liver Injury Differentiates cholestatic from hepatocellular liver injury, recommended by ACG guidelines
Official journal of the American College of Gastroenterology | ACG - LWW Patients with cholestatic DILI are more than twice as likely to develop chronic liver injury compared with patients with hepatocellular DILI By contrast, hepatocellular injury is more likely to be fatal or result in liver transplantation, albeit both events are rare
#293 The Best of Liver Tests with Dr. Elliot Tapper The R score can be used to differentiate hepatocellular and cholestatic patterns of acute liver injury An R ratio >5= hepatocellular injury, <2=cholestatic, and 2-5=mixed
Acute Liver Injury and Failure - Internal Medicine Residency Handbook Consider CTH or MRI to assess for cerebral edema (findings include decrease in ventricular size, flattening of cerebral convolutions, reduction in signal intensity of brain parenchyma) Consider ERCP MRCP for cholestatic etiologies Discuss possible liver biopsy if etiology unclear
010035: Drug-Induced Liver Injury Pattern Assessment with . . . - Labcorp These patterns can be more precisely and quantitatively expressed through the R value at presentation when: • R value ≥ 5 0 identifies hepatocellular liver injury • R value 2 1- 4 9 identifies mixed liver injury • R value ≤ 2 0 identifies cholestatic liver injury
How to approach elevated liver enzymes? | AASLD The R-value is a scoring tool to identify liver injury patterns by comparing aminotransferase (ALT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels to their upper normal limits (R = (ALT ÷ ULN ALT) (ALP ÷ ULN ALP)) Based on the R-value, liver injury patterns can be classified as hepatocellular, cholestatic, or mixed
Emergency Department Evaluation of Cholestatic Labs Blood tests for cholestasis include alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), direct and indirect bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), international normalized ratio (INR), and albumin
RUCAM scale to estimate the probability of the drug-induced liver . . . To assess the causality of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) on the RUCAM scale, it is necessary to select the variant of liver injury (hepatocellular or cholestatic mixed) and evaluate the indicators corresponding to the variant of liver damage, after the assessment, it is necessary to sum the scale indicators and interpret the scores
Calculators - R factor - Cirrhosis Care Used to differentiate cholestatic injury from hepatocellular liver injury Danan G, Benichou C Causality assessment of adverse reactions to drugs--I A novel method based on the conclusions of international consensus meetings: application to drug-induced liver injuries J Clin Epidemiol 1993;46 (11):1323-1330 doi:10 1016 0895-4356 (93)90101-6
8 Facts to Help Master the Interpretation of Liver Chemistry Tests The R ratio can quantify the pattern of liver injury: R = (ALT ALT ULN) (ALP ALP ULN), where R > 5 indicates hepatocellular injury, R < 2 indicates cholestatic injury, and R between 2-5 indicates mixed pattern
