Resumen

ROBERT TAMAYO, Vivian et al. Laboratory tests in Gilbert's syndrome subsequent to hepatitis . MEDISAN [online]. 2012, vol.16, n.12, pp.1823-1830. ISSN 1029-3019.

A descriptive and cross-sectional study was carried out in 40 patients with Gilbert's syndrome subsequent to viral hepatitis, admitted to the Internal Medicine Department of "Saturnino Lora Torres" Provincial Clinical Surgical Teaching Hospital of Santiago de Cuba or to the specialized hepatology service of the Polyclinic of Specialties in this institution, from June 2011 to the same month of 2012, to determine the clinical and humoral characteristics and the response to medical treatment in them. Means, medians and standard deviations were evaluated in the case material, and among the results was a greater representation of males younger than 36 years (90.0% of the total), and a prevalence of manifestations of drowsiness, followed by sleepiness, mild jaundice and absence of symptoms was observed. Also, the elevation of indirect bilirrubin and its subsequent reduction when applying therapy with an enzyme inducer, phenobarbital in this case, were confirmed, eventually obtaining clinical and humoral improvement of patients.
