Move "Magnitude of AST and ALT elevations" section to "Elevated transaminases" article? edit
The section AST/ALT ratio#Magnitude_of_AST_and_ALT_elevations refers only to ALT and AST levels, not to the ALT/AST ratio. I propose moving this section to Elevated transaminases article, which addresses ALT and AST levels, and also refers back to this article. Will move it in a month if no objections.

AST/ALT ratio in context of other factors such as absolute values and other markers edit
The article discusses the ratio of AST/ALT without reference to the absolute values or other markers that would be used as part of the interpretation of the ratio. e.g. AST=20, ALT=10 IU/L, Bilirubin = 0.8 mg/dl; vs AST=200, ALT = 100, Bilirubin = 1.5. The article as written does not well enlighten one on the different significance of the high ratio in these two cases. Can someone elucidate a bit? 75.70.69.95 (talk) 20:33, 24 September 2022 (UTC)
