From: Low serum amylase in association with metabolic syndrome and diabetes: A community-based study
Changes in serum amylase over 5 years. The numbers of subjects in Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4 [further divided according to current kidney functions as eGFR (ml/min/1.73 m2)] are 144 (25, 105, 14), 149 (16, 120, 13), 157 (17, 116, 24), and 121 (9, 86, 26), respectively. Current serum amylase increased significantly with decreasing amylase quartile recorded 5 years ago and decreasing current eGFR (P = 0.004 and P = 0.02, ANOVA, respectively). Values are means ± SE.
