To assess the liver's production properties, a thymol test is administered. With the help of this analysis, it is possible to determine the ratio of all five protein fractions produced by this organ. Given that the liver is responsible for the processes of hematopoiesis, metabolism, the balance of hormones, one should worry if the timole test is increased - the reasons for this result lie in the development of various internal diseases.
Causes of increased thymol test
The considered deviation in the biochemical analysis of the blood is called disproteinemia. Its causes are:
- toxic, alcoholic, viral, medicinal hepatitises;
- fatty liver infiltration;
- Bechterew's disease;
- glomerulonephritis;
- cirrhosis of the liver;
- amyloidosis;
- Goodpasture syndrome ;
- genetic disorders of protein metabolism;
- oncological diseases of the liver;
- cryoglobulinemia;
- nodular periarteritis;
- pyelonephritis;
- brucellosis;
- malaria;
- hemorrhagic vasculitis;
- leptospirosis;
- Wegener's granulomatosis;
- systemic lupus erythematosus;
- myeloma;
- long and uncontrolled intake of oral contraceptives, steroid hormones;
- mononucleosis;
- macroglobulinemia;
- dermatomyositis;
- pancreatitis;
- Sjogren's disease;
- rheumatoid polyarthritis;
- mechanical jaundice ;
- enteritis with severe diarrhea;
- malignant tumors;
- Horton's disease.
In addition, the causes of increased thymol test may consist of a violation of the diet, namely, the consumption of excess fat. Therefore, in order to clarify the diagnosis, additional laboratory and X-ray studies should be carried out.
The thymol test is raised in the blood - the causes and treatment of this condition
As can be seen, the factors contributing to
Among the common pathologies for appointments, there must always be a special diet. The diet assumes strict restriction of fats, both animal and vegetable origin. It is also necessary to virtually abandon the consumption of so-called "fast" carbohydrates, sour fruits and vegetables, especially citrus and tomatoes, meat and fish soups, broths.
