    For most substances presented, the optimal levels are the ones normally found in the population as well. More specifically, optimal levels are generally close to a central tendency of the values found in the population. However, usual and optimal levels may differ substantially, most notably among vitamins and blood lipids, so these tables give ...

  5. Serum protein electrophoresis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serum_protein_electrophoresis

    C-reactive protein is found in between the beta and gamma zones producing beta/gamma fusion. IgA has the most anodal mobility and typically migrates in the region between the beta and gamma zones also causing a beta/gamma fusion in patients with cirrhosis, respiratory infection, skin disease, or rheumatoid arthritis (increased IgA).

    C-Reactive Protein: Level of inflammation with the body. If the immune system is fighting an infection or illness, CRP will be higher. CBC (UK: FBC) Complete Blood Count (UK: Full Blood Count) Analysis of 15 different blood test readings to provide information about overall health. TSH Thyroid-stimulating hormone

  7. Systemic inflammation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systemic_inflammation

    The cytokine Interleukin 6 and C-reactive protein are common inflammatory markers used to diagnose systemic inflammation risk. [3] Baseline C-reactive protein levels deviate due to natural genetic variation, but significant increases can result from risk factors such as smoking, obesity, lifestyle, and high blood pressure. [3]

  8. Acute-phase protein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acute-phase_protein

    In contrast, C-reactive protein (with a half-life of 6–8 hours) rises rapidly and can quickly return to within the normal range if treatment is employed. For example, in active systemic lupus erythematosus, one may find a raised ESR but normal C-reactive protein. [citation needed] They may also indicate liver failure. [11]

  9. Ferritin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferritin

    A normal C-reactive protein can be used to exclude elevated ferritin caused by acute phase reactions. [citation needed] Ferritin has been shown to be elevated in some cases of COVID-19 and may correlate with worse clinical outcome. [41] [42] Ferritin and IL-6 are considered to be possible immunological biomarkers for severe and fatal cases of ...
