Background: In March 2022, a concerning rise in cases of unexplained pediatric hepatitis was reported in multiple countries. Cases were defined as acute hepatitis with serum transaminases >500 U/L (aspartate transaminase [AST] or alanine transaminase [ALT]) in children aged 16 years or younger. We explored a simple federated data analytics method to search for evidence of unreported cases using routinely held data.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a complicated neurodegenerative disease that is the most prevalent severe movement disorder worldwide. The research includes studying the levels of hydrogen sulphide (H2S) and cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE) with some biochemical parameters in the serum of patients with PD in Mosul City (Iraq), which include Serotonin (SERT), dopamine (DA), sphingomyelin (SM), vitamin B12, Acetylcholine esterase (AChE), monoamine oxidase (MAO), creatine kinase (CK), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT). Samples reached (100), which included: (40) for the Parkinson's patients group, and (60) for the control group.

Background: Patients with diabetes are at a high risk for perioperative ischemic stroke (PIS). The use of biomarkers to identify high-risk patients and predict PIS may provide considerable reference value in clinical decision-making. The aspartate transaminase/alanine transaminase ratio (De Ritis ratio) has been proven to be associated with specific diabetic complications.

Background: The features of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) differ from those without. This study aims to spot a routinely tested parameter with discriminative, predictive and prognostic value to enhance CURB-65's prognostic accuracy in CAP patients with T2DM.
Methods: We retrospectively studied consecutive CAP patients from 2020 to 2021, comparing laboratory parameters between patients with and without T2DM.
