How much does the transaminase increase after staying up late

After staying up late, transaminase levels may increase by 5-40 units/liter, depending on factors such as the duration of staying up late and individual metabolic differences. Short term staying up late may lead to a mild increase of 5-20 units/liter in transaminase levels, which is common in people who stay up late continuously or lack sleep. In this case, elevated transaminase levels are usually transient and can gradually return to normal after 1-3 days of sufficient rest. People who stay up late for a long time or have disrupted circadian rhythms may experience an increase in transaminase levels by 20-40 units/liter, which is related to increased liver metabolic burden and enhanced oxidative stress response. Due to a combination of factors such as alcohol intake and high-fat diet, some individuals may experience a more significant increase in transaminase levels. The transaminase value is affected by the testing time, and it is recommended to test on an empty stomach within 24 hours after staying up late for more accurate results. If the transaminase continues to exceed 80 units/liter or is accompanied by symptoms such as fatigue and decreased appetite, it is necessary to be alert to pathological factors such as viral hepatitis and fatty liver.

It is recommended to maintain a regular schedule and avoid staying up late continuously. Daily intake of vitamin B and high-quality protein can be supplemented appropriately, reducing the intake of high sugar and high-fat foods. When transaminase levels are abnormally elevated, liver function should be rechecked in a timely manner, and if necessary, hepatitis virus screening, liver ultrasound, and other examinations should be completed.
