Manometric Measurement of the Sphincter of Oddi in Patients with Common Bile Duct Stones: A Consecutive Study of the Han Population of China

Table 2

Levels of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate transaminase, alkaline phosphatase, and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase in patients with normal or elevated basal sphincter of Oddi pressure.

	Basal SO pressure		P value
	<40 mmHg ()	>40 mmHg ()
ALT (u/L)			0.108
AST (u/L)			0.162
AKP (u/L)			0.104
-GT (u/L)			0.246

SO: sphincter of Oddi, ALT: alanine aminotransferase, AST: aspartate transaminase, AKP: alkaline phosphatase, and γ-GT: γ-glutamyl transpeptidase.
No significant levels of ALT, AST, γ-GT, and AKP in patients with normal or elevated basal SO pressure.
