1 | The current systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs) were performed to assess the effect of L-carnitine supplementation on serum levels of enzymes mainly produced by liver [alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGTP)]. | Carnitine | solute carrier family 17 member 5 | Homo sapiens |
2 | The current systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs) were performed to assess the effect of L-carnitine supplementation on serum levels of enzymes mainly produced by liver [alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGTP)]. | Carnitine | solute carrier family 17 member 5 | Homo sapiens |
3 | L-carnitine supplementation significantly reduced serum ALT (MD = - 8.65 IU/L, 95% CI - 13.40, - 3.90), AST (MD = - 8.52 IU/L, 95% CI - 12.16, - 4.89), and GGTP (MD = - 8.80 IU/L, 95% CI - 13.67, - 3.92) levels. | Carnitine | solute carrier family 17 member 5 | Homo sapiens |
4 | CONCLUSION: L-carnitine supplementation significantly improves circulating ALT, AST and GGTP levels; therefore, it might positively affect liver function, especially among patients with liver diseases. | Carnitine | solute carrier family 17 member 5 | Homo sapiens |
