  2. Urine electrolyte levels - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urine_electrolyte_levels

    mmol / 24 h: An abnormally high level is called hypercalciuria and an abnormally low rate is called hypocalciuria. 14637-3: 100 [8] 250 [8] mg / 24 hours: 6874-2: Phosphate (P) – per day: n/a [5] 38 [5] mmol / 24 h: Phosphaturia is the hyperexcretion of phosphate in the urine. This condition is divided into primary and secondary types.

  3. Blood urea nitrogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_urea_nitrogen

    D001806. LOINC. 6299-2, 59570-2, 12961-9, 12963-5, 12962-7. Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) is a medical test that measures the amount of urea nitrogen found in blood. The liver produces urea in the urea cycle as a waste product of the digestion of protein. Normal human adult blood should contain 7 to 18 mg/dL (0.388 to 1 mmol/L) of urea nitrogen. [1]

  4. Hyperphosphatemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperphosphatemia

    A phosphate concentration greater than 1.46 mmol/L (4.5 mg/dL) is indicative of hyperphosphatemia, though further tests may be needed to identify the underlying cause of the elevated phosphate levels. [5] It is considered significant when levels are greater than 1.6 mmol/L (5 mg/dL). [2]

  5. Creatinine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creatinine

    One mg/dL of creatinine equals 88.4 μmol/L. The typical human reference ranges for serum creatinine are 0.5 mg/dL to 1.0 mg/dL (about 45 μmol/L to 90 μmol/L) for women and 0.7 mg/dL to 1.2 mg/dL (60 μmol/L to 110 μmol/L) for men. The significance of a single creatinine value must be interpreted in light of the patient's muscle mass.

  6. Reference ranges for blood tests - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_ranges_for_blood...

    v. t. e. Reference ranges (reference intervals) for blood tests are sets of values used by a health professional to interpret a set of medical test results from blood samples. Reference ranges for blood tests are studied within the field of clinical chemistry (also known as "clinical biochemistry", "chemical pathology" or "pure blood chemistry ...

  7. Hypophosphatemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypophosphatemia

    It is diagnosed based on a blood phosphate concentration of less than 0.81 mmol/L (2.5 mg/dL). [1] When levels are below 0.32 mmol/L (1.0 mg/dL) it is deemed to be severe. [2] Treatment depends on the underlying cause. [1] Phosphate may be given by mouth or by injection into a vein. [1]

  8. Alkaline phosphatase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkaline_phosphatase

    The enzyme alkaline phosphatase (ALP, alkaline phenyl phosphatase) is a phosphatase with the physiological role of dephosphorylating compounds. The enzyme is found across a multitude of organisms, prokaryotes and eukaryotes alike, with the same general function, but in different structural forms suitable to the environment they function in. Alkaline phosphatase is found in the periplasmic ...

  9. Calcium metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_metabolism

    The plasma total calcium concentration is in the range of 2.2–2.6 mmol/L (9–10.5 mg/dL), and the normal ionized calcium is 1.3–1.5 mmol/L (4.5–5.6 mg/dL). [4] The amount of total calcium in the blood varies with the level of plasma albumin, the most abundant protein in plasma, and therefore the main carrier of protein-bound calcium in the blood.
