2. Reference ranges for blood tests - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_ranges_for_blood...

   Reference ranges (reference intervals) for blood tests are sets of values used by a health professional to interpret a set of medical test results from blood samples. Reference ranges for blood tests are studied within the field of clinical chemistry (also known as "clinical biochemistry", "chemical pathology" or "pure blood chemistry"), the ...

3. 11-Deoxycortisol - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/11-Deoxycortisol

   11-Deoxycortisol in mammals has limited glucocorticoid activity, but it is the direct precursor of the major mammalian glucocorticoid, cortisol. [15] As a result, the level of 11-deoxycortisol is measured to diagnose impaired cortisol synthesis, to find out the enzyme deficiency that causes impairment along the pathway to cortisol, and to differentiate adrenal disorders.

4. Reference range - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_range

   The standard definition of a reference range for a particular measurement is defined as the interval between which 95% of values of a reference population fall into, in such a way that 2.5% of the time a value will be less than the lower limit of this interval, and 2.5% of the time it will be larger than the upper limit of this interval, whatever the distribution of these values.

6. Congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congenital_adrenal...

   Cortisol levels are lower in CAH subjects, on average, [38] however, in milder cases cortisol levels can be normal, but, this has not been yet well studied. Cortisol measurement using immunoassays is prone to cross-reactivity with various substances including 21-deoxycortisol that raises due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, leading to falsely high ...

7. Corticosterone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corticosterone

   However, in humans, cortisol is the primary glucocorticoid that is produced primarily in the zona fasciculata of the adrenal cortex. Corticosterone has only weak glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid potencies in humans and is important mainly as an intermediate in the steroidogenic pathway from pregnenolone to aldosterone .

9. Cortisone reductase deficiency - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cortisone_reductase_deficiency

   In a healthy body, blood cortisone and cortisol levels are roughly equimolar. [7] Cortisone reductase deficiency leads to an elevated level of inert cortisone to active cortisol in adipose tissue. Cortisone reductase deficiency is caused by dysregulation of the 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 enzyme, otherwise known as cortisone reductase.
