ABSTRACT:

Liver is a pivotal organ of the body and play very important role in the metabolism. If there is any problem in the liver then the herbs or different plants play an important role for the treatment of liver disorders. The main objective of the study is to analyse the acute hepatitis in children. This cross-sectional study was conducted in Abbottabad International Medical College during March 2019 to December 2019. The data was collected from both genders and the sample size is 100. The age range for this study was 6 months to 10 years. Detailed history was taken from all patients with special reference to duration of hepatitis, mode of infection, previous history of jaundice, HBV or HCV infection. The data was collected from 100 patients. The mean age was 35.16 ± 24.8 months. The data suggest clearly that CD4 count decreases in abnormal liver function. The results shown the table 01 demonstrates the multiple comparison of ALT, AST and ALP level among different treatments and normal group. There were non-significant relationship present in diseased group treated with different therapies like interferon and glutathione as as p<0.05. It is concluded that HBV infection affected the development of children. Generally, elevated AST levels were effective, in development of children and we aimed to emphasize that this infection should be kept in mind while researching developmental anomalies.
