Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Mean serum conjugated bilirubin (umol/L)
Secondary outcome measures
Biochemical outcomes shall assess mean levels of "hepatic markers" (AST, ALT, ALP, GGT), coagulation parameters (PT, PTT, INR, platelets), serum lipid levels (triglycerides and cholesterol), serum albumin, and Nephelometry (lipid clearance).
