A 27-year-old man has hepatomegaly and mild jaundice. Serum alkaline phosphatase and y-glutamyltransferase activities are increased. Which of the following properties of these enzymes allows them to be used to detect defects in bile flow? A) Present in bile ductules B) Present on the basal surface of hepatocytes C) Released from the gallbladder D) Required for bile salt synthesis E) Required for bilirubin conjugation F) Required for heme catabolism

CASE STUDY 25 The following laboratory test results were obtained in a patient with severe jaundice, right upper quadrant abdominal pain, fever, and chills (Case Study Table 25.1.1). CASE STUDY TABLE 25.1.1 Laboratory Results Serum alkaline phosphatase: Four times normal Serum cholesterol: Increased AST (SGOT): Normal or slightly increased 5'-Nucleotidase: Increased Total serum bilirubin: 25 mg/dL Conjugated bilirubin: 19 mg/dL Prothrombin time: Prolonged but improves with vitamin K injection

We wish to estimate the mean serum indirect bilirubin level of 4-day-old infants. The mean for a sample of 16 infants was found to be 5.98 mg/100 cc. Assume that bilirubin levels in 4-day-old infants are approximately normally distributed with a standard deviation of 3.5 mg/100 cc. Construct a 90 percent confidence interval for the population mean serum.
