CertifiedLabsThis is a comparison between two liver enzymes, AST (SGOT) and ALT (SGPT), both of which rise when the liver is under stress. The ratio between them gives doctors extra clues about the type of liver problem. The SGOT/SGPT ratio is calculated from your AST and ALT results. The pattern of the ratio can help point towards different causes of liver strain, such as fatty liver or alcohol-related liver effects.
Before the Test
Tell your doctor about all medicines, supplements, and alcohol use.
Mention recent heavy exercise or muscle injury, as these can affect the enzymes.
Follow any fasting instructions if part of a larger panel.
