The most sensitive liver function tests among the options given are Prothrombin Time (PT) and International Normalized Ratio (INR), as they reflect the liver's ability to produce clotting factors. Both PT and INR can show changes earlier than other liver function tests in cases of liver dysfunction. Bilirubin levels can also indicate liver issues, but they may not be as sensitive in detecting early liver impairment compared to PT and INR. In summary, PT and INR are more sensitive indicators of liver function than bilirubin.

What is gutate psoriasis?
guttate psoriasis is a less common form of psoriasis. it looks like little pink or red drops on your skin that may be flaky and itchy. these red spots usually show up on your arms, legs, trunk and "hot" spots like your armpits, inside on your elbows, and backside of your knees. in general, psoriasis is a non contagious skin disorder and also an immune disorder, since those with psoriasis have higher white blood cell levels than normal people. guttate is a little different because it is usually triggered by a bacterial infection, almost always streptoccocus (or what most people know as Strep Throat). the doctor will most likely give you antibiotics to rid your body of any bacterial infections if you are presenting with guttate psoriasis, and may prescribe some corticosteroid cream to alleviate the itching... but there really is nothing to do but wait for the psoriasis to run its course. moisturizing often to keep the skin calm may help, as well as sunlight (since UV rays have been shown to help with symptoms of psoriasis).
