Hello and welcome to HCM,
A value of SGOT at 44 and SGPT at 38 are within normal range.
ThE normal range of SGOT and SGPT or any other test for that matter may vary according to the reagents used.
However, the value of both the liver enzymes is within normal range.
In disease state, the SGOT and SGPT are greately increased.
Thus, do not worry.
Your liver functions are absolutely normal.
Thanks and take care
