A diabetic patient has an they are compliant with diet and medication
HbA1C of 6.0%, what
conclusion can you make
about their carbohydrate
management?
What HbA1c value is 6.5%
diagnostic for diabetes?
What HbA1C value is below 5.7%
considered normal?
In the Jaffe reaction, a red- picric acid
orange chromogen is
formed when creatinine
reacts with
What method is used for fructosamine
long-term diabetic
monitoring in patients with
sickle cell anemia?
Why don't we use A1C to rapid hemoglobin turnover, and fructoamine is more
monitor diabetes in sickle sensitive.
cell patinets?
glycoproteins are acute phase proteins
CSF glucose level is _____% 60-70%
of serum glucose level
If a patient has a serum about 45 mg/dl
glucose of 70 mg/dl, what
would be a normal CSF
glucose?
, Crcl = urine creatinine * Urine volume / Plasma
Creatinine clearance
creatinine x time in mins
formula
~ can use a 2 hour urine collection
caused by destruction of thyroid tissue or defective
hormone synthesis
primary hypothyroidism
High TSH, low T3 and T4
Caused by pituitary or hypothalamic dysfunction (↓ TSH
secondary hypothyroidism
or TRH)
the thyroid gland is normal, the pituitary is also normal,
tertiary hypothyroidism but the hypothalamus is unable to produce thyroid
releasing hormone (TRH) to stimulate the pituitary gland
Albumin can be quantified serum protein electrophoresis, nephelometry, and
using colorimetric spectrophotometry
In kernicterus, abnormal brain
accumulation of bilirubin
occurs in the
What test do we use to creatinine clearance
assess glomerular
filtration?
Calcium and phosphate are parathyroid hormone, vitamin D, calcitonin
regulated by
1. stimulating bone resorption or bone formation to
increase/decrease serum calcium levels
2. increasing reabsorption of renal tubular calcium and
PTH regulates calcium and decreasing the reabsorption of phosphate by the
phosphate by proximal tubule
3. enhancing 1a-hydroxylation of 25-hydroxy vitamin D
to produce 1,25 (OH)2D which stimulates both calcium
and phosphate
Whole blood glucose about 11% lower
values are ________ plasma
glucose values
How many bands are 5
separated during serum
protein electrophoresis? albumin, alpha1, alpha2, beta, gamma
, electrophoretic separation electrical charge difference of molecules
of hemoglobin relies on
What is the most significant intravascular hemolysis
cause of decreased
haptoglobin levels?
What vitamin deficiency vitamin K
leads to increased clotting
time and may result in
hemorrhagic disease?
cortisol peaks at 8am
What protein is also known transthyretin
as prealbumin because it
migrates before albumin in
customary electrophoresis
of serum or plasma
proteins?
fibronectic is considered phagocytosis
the major protein
regulating _____________
transferrin is synthesized in the liver and transports ferric iron
8-hydroxyquinoline and calcium
ortho-cresopthalein
complexone (CPC) reagent
is commonly used in the
determination of
a test for microalbuminuria diabetes
is used to monitor patients
with
CK-MB and myoglobin are injury to muscle other than cardiac muscle
present in skeletal muscle
and may be present in
______ is much more specific troponin T and I
to cardiac musccle than
myoblobin and CK-MB
What form of calcium is free ionized calcium
biologically active?
