Intestinal Ischemia Biomarker in Patients With Chronic Mesenteric Ischemia

Recruiting now

Conditions studied: Chronic Mesenteric Ischemia, Median Arcuate Ligament Syndrome, Crohn Disease, Cholelithiasis

In brief

Plasma Alpha glutathione S transferase (Alpha GST) has been previously demonstrated to be raised in patients with chronic mesenteric ischemia (CMI) caused by atherosclerosis and in patients with median arcuate ligament syndrome (MALS). Raised plasma level of Alpha GST has been demonstrated to decrease or normalize after surgical treatment of patients with CMI and MALS as compared with healthy individuals. This study compares the plasma Alpha GST in patients with CMI and MALS with those with 1-Morbus Crohn, 2-Gallstone disease, and age-matched healthy individuals. Besides, changes in the health-related quality of life (QoL) will be investigated in the study individuals.
