Normal blood creatinine levels also vary by race. For non-Hispanic blacks, the average blood creatinine is 1.25 mg/dL in men and 1.01 mg/dL in women. In non-Hispanic whites the mean blood creatinine levels are 1.16 mg/dL in men and 0.97 mg/dL in women In Mexican-Americans, the values...
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...
Women, children, and older people tend to have lower levels of creatinine compared to adult men because they have less muscle mass [1]. Creatinine is removed from the body by the kidneys, which filter almost all of it from the blood into the urine. When kidneys aren’t working properly,...

Venous blood was collected after 8 h of fasting and samples were tested for total cholesterol, HDL-C, LDL-C, oxidized LDL-C, triglycerides, lipoprotein (a), glucose, insulin, HbA1c, cystatin C, and creatinine by standard methods (14). LDL-C was calculated by the Friedewald method except...
Here, we present a clinical case of late-onset PD (LOPD) with normal CK (creatinine kinase) values treated after a misdiagnosis of demyelinating motor polyneuropathy and chronic inflammatory neuropathy. The suspicion of possible fibromyalgia induced the patient to seek a rheumatology ...
Screening Blood testsare used to try to detect a disease when there is little or no evidence that a person has a suspected disease. For example, measuring cholesterol levels helps to identify one of the risks of heart disease. These screening tests are performed on people who may show no sy...
However, it may associated with a health condition like a UTI, liver cancer or azotemia (a condition that is characterized by increased urea and creatinine in the blood). Therefore low ALT levels that present with other symptoms should be investigated with further testing....
Normal Albumin Levels and Albumin/Creatinine Ratio Keep in mind that labs test things a bit differently from each other. Also, not all bodies are the same, so what’s normal for one person might not be normal for you. The numbers here are guidelines. Your doctor can help you understand ...
Creatinine: 0.8-1.3 mg/dL Blood urea nitrogen: 8–20 mg/dL Ferritin: Female: Female: 24–307 ng/mL; male: 24–336 ng/mL Glucose:70–99 mg/dL Inorganic phosphorous: 3-4.5 mg/dL Ionized calcium: 1.12–1.23 mmol/L Magnesium: 1.6–2.6 mg/dL Phosphate: 2.5 to 4.5 mg/dL ...
