Summary Introduction
To determine: The lab tests and its results to rule out the presence of hepatitis A infection in the given patient.
Concept introduction:
To detect a known RNA sequence, methods such as reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) or RNA sequencing can be used. In both the cases, mRNA is first converted to complementary DNA (cDNA) and then analyzed. Hepatitis A is categorized as an RNA virus. Hepatitis A infection can be detected in the blood or tissue through these methods.

But two new studies reveal the potential culprits: a combination of genetic factors, lockdowns, and at least two viruses working together. Doctors first noticed a strange cluster of hepatitis cases in young children in Scotland in April this year. By April 8, 60 cases were being investigated across Scotland, England, and Wales, mostly in children aged two to five. As of July 8, the World Health Organization reported 1,010 probable cases of the liver condition in 35 countries—although the true number is likely to be higher, says Antonia Ho, an infectious diseases consultant at the MRC–University of Glasgow Centre for Virus Research, who has been investigating the outbreak. A third of the cases reported so far have been in the US. These cases are…arrow_forward
