Confusingly, it is likely that the results of the three tests will not be differentiated from each other and, instead, will be listed under one large column, often labelled “Test Name”. Within each are various sub-tests, which altogether give a broad picture of an individual’s health. ...
Similarly to the creatinine blood test, creatinine clearance, as mentioned above, is another test that is used to assess kidney function. This test measures how well the kidneys filter out creatinine over a given period. Instead of a blood sample, creatinine clearance is usually determined from a...
Volume depletion leads to enhanced proximal tubule salt and water retention, thereby increasing the passive reabsorption of urea, leading to a rise in the normal blood urea nitrogen (BUN) to creatinine ratio from the normal level of 10:1 to over 20:1. Factors that alter urea generation ...
The nonprotein nitrogen of the blood is contained mainly in the end or intermediate products of nitrogenous metabolism: urea, ammonia, polypeptides, amino acids, creatine, creatinine, uric acid, and purine bases. The blood that flows away from the intestinal tract carries amino acids through the ...
3.1.1 Presumptive tests The simplest test that crime scene investigators use to detect bloodstains that are not clearly visible is an alternate light source (ALS) such as ultraviolet light. This method is especially helpful when the stain is on a dark background [11]. An ALS can direct atte...
(ROCP < 0.0026, the Bonferroni-adjusted threshold). All six of the best-performing ProteinScores shown were assessed for the 10-year onset of the disease. Results that include the ProteinScore are shaded in orange, whereas results that do not are shaded in purple. Two-sided tests were...

The rapid postnatal decline of the blood glucose concentration and its maintenance at low levels in infants of diabetic mothers could be explained by either: (i) an excessive tissue uptake and assimilation of the blood glucose postnatally; or (ii) a failure of its production by the liver. Thi...
While creatinine was obviously found in this group, other metabolites of interest with a similar behaviour could also be highlighted (Fig. 3). As such, N-acetyl amino-acids (e.g. N-acetylmethionine and N-acetylleucine) also belonged to this group. A correlation between renal function and ...
