How can you use “cholestasis” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
• Serum transaminases are elevated in preterm infants (<35 weeks' gestational age) with cholestasis and prolonged administration of total parenteral nutrition (TPN), indicating that cholestasis is associated with hepatocellular injury
For the 27 infants enrolled in the cholestasis group, matched controls were identified for 24.
Furthermore, deposition of lipofuscin, a by-product of lipid peroxidation, characterizes TPN-induced cholestasis in preterm infants [ 17].
• Our findings suggest that cholestasis in preterm infants receiving TPN is induced, in large part, by mechanisms that are not dependent on oxidant-mediated hepatocellular injury
Recent studies have supported the hypothesis that generation of reactive oxygen intermediates (ROIs) and elevated lipid hydroperoxides in the liver during cholestasis cause tissue injury.
