摘要
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) serves as a biomarker for diagnosing several types of diseases in adults; nonetheless, its use is restricted in children because of changes in ALP activity during different physiological phases. The present study aimed to investigate ALP activity and its dynamics in children of different ages to establish the reference values for ALP activity in children. Total 167,625 samples of children aged 0–18 years were enrolled in this study. ALP activity was measured using the 4-nitrophenyl-1-phosphate disodium salt (4-NPP)–2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) method with an automatic biochemical analyzer. Patients with known diagnoses that may affect ALP activity were excluded. A percentile curve was plotted using MATLAB software, and the curve was fitted using the skewness–median–coefficient of variation (LMS) method. ALP activity reached the highest peak at 12–13 years of age and then gradually decreased to the lowest peak at 18–19 years of age in boys, whereas it reached the highest at 10–11 years and then gradually reduced to the lowest at 17–18 years in girls. Furthermore, the highest peak of ALP activity appeared substantially earlier in children of either sex in China than in those in Germany. We showed the dynamics of ALP activity in both boys and girls between the ages of 0 and 18 years in China and compared the difference in ALP activity between children in China and Germany. Our findings provide a reference for clinicians.
