When ‘Liver Enzymes’ Are Not Hepatic: Late‐Onset Pompe Disease
Medical Journal of Australia, Volume 224, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Elevated liver function tests are commonly attributed to hepatic disease but may reflect extrahepatic pathology. We describe the case of an 18‐year‐old athletic woman with a 2‐year history of elevated aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and creatine kinase (CK) levels, initially investigated extensively for hepatic

The control of ovulation in mothers of dizygotic twins
, 1996 Dizygotic twinning is familial, suggesting that there may be an inherited abnormality of the control of ovulation that predisposes to double ovulation and, therefore, dizygotic twins. The present study examines 17 mothers of dizygotic twins (MODZT) and 8
