We determined the concentrations of total protein, albumin, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), glucose, creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) in the sera of 158 rural aged patients (patients over sixty years old and residing in country areas) to analyze the distributions of patients that showed abnormal levels of these biochemical components in their sera. The concentrations of biochemical components were compared with reference values. The distribution of patients showing low levels of total protein, albumin, or both of them was 22.5%, 24.1%, and 19.6% respectively. The distribution of patients showing high levels of AST, ALT, cholesterol, creatinine, and BUN was 36.7%, 41.8%, 16.4%, 42.45%, 5.8%, and 17.1%, respectively. High levels of AST and ALT were found in 31.5% of the patients of (51 out of 158). The distributions of patients showing high levels of both creatinineand BUN was in 8.2%
(22 out of 158). 6.9% of the patients (11 out of 158) displayed high levels of both AST and cholesterol.
In conclusion, we expect that a high frecuency of rural aged patients have, are developing, or will develop liver disease or hyperglycemia.
