Factors influencing normal reference intervals for creatinine, urea, and electrolytes in plasma, as measured with a Beckman Astra 8 Analyzer.
In a study of 514 healthy adults, we used a Beckman Astra 8 Analyzer to establish normal reference intervals for plasma creatinine, urea, and electrolytes. For potassium and chloride these were considerably lower and higher, respectively, than previously reported ranges. All of these analytes showed significant sex-related differences; all except chloride showed age-related changes. The relatio...
متن کاملEstablishing pediatric reference intervals: a challenging task.
Defining pediatric reference intervals (RIs) is one of the most difficult tasks in our profession. The continuously changing physiology of growing children makes their laboratory values a moving target. To measure specific analytes in the pediatric age range, one has to consider the interindividual variation of not only the homeostatic set point but also the developmental stage of each individu...
متن کاملEstablishing reference intervals for bone turnover markers in healthy postmenopausal women in a nonfasting state.
In order to interpret bone turnover markers (BTMs), we need to establish healthy reference intervals. It is difficult to establish reference intervals for older women because they commonly suffer from diseases or take medications that affect bone turnover. The aims of this study were: (1) to identify diseases and drugs that have a substantial effect on BTMs; (2) to establish reference intervals...
متن کاملAge dependent reference intervals of glucose, urea, protein, lactate and electrolytes in thermally induced sweat.
Concentrations of electrolytes, lactate, urea, glucose, total lipids and total protein were measured in sweat obtained by thermal stimulation of apparently healthy volunteers. Blood and urine samples were also collected. Electrolytes, urea and total protein were also measured in serum. The concentrations of electrolytes, glucose and urea in sweat increased with age, and this increase was more a...
متن کاملEstablishing Reference Intervals for Sex Hormones on the Analytical Platforms Advia Centaur and Immulite 2000XP
Reliable reference intervals for sex hormones are indispensable in evaluations of the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal axis. This study established reference intervals for estradiol, progesterone, luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, and prolactin with the immunoassay platforms Advia Centaur and Immulite 2000XP (Siemens Healthcare, Germany). We recruited healthy men (n=220), women in...
