Journal Title: Гастроентерологія - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 53
Abstract
Patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 and fatty liver disease were examined. Except the common methods, for differential diagnosis we have used determination of bioelement content of the blood (potassium, sodium, magnesium, copper, zinc, iron, calcium). Changes of micro- and macroelement metabolism in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease depending on the activity of pathological process in the liver and stage of the disease. When examining patients, it is appropriate to measure the levels of potassium, sodium, magnesium, copper, zinc, iron and calcium as additional criteria to evaluate the severity of the disease and functional state of the liver.
