  2. Hypophosphatemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypophosphatemia

    Laboratory findings include low-normal serum calcium, moderately low serum phosphate, elevated serum alkaline phosphatase, and low serum 1,25 dihydroxy-vitamin D levels, hyperphosphaturia, and no evidence of hyperparathyroidism. [8] Hypophosphatemia decreases 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (2,3-BPG) causing a left shift in the oxyhemoglobin curve.

  3. Alkaline phosphatase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkaline_phosphatase

    The enzyme alkaline phosphatase (ALP, alkaline phenyl phosphatase, also abbreviated PhoA) is a phosphatase with the physiological role of dephosphorylating compounds. The enzyme is found across a multitude of organisms, prokaryotes and eukaryotes alike, with the same general function, but in different structural forms suitable to the environment they function in. Alkaline phosphatase is found ...

  4. Hypophosphatasia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypophosphatasia

    Hypophosphatasia (/ ˌ h aɪ p oʊ ˈ f ɒ s f eɪ t ˌ eɪ ʒ ə /; also called deficiency of alkaline phosphatase, phosphoethanolaminuria, [5] or Rathbun's syndrome; [1] sometimes abbreviated HPP [6]) is a rare, and sometimes fatal, inherited [7] metabolic bone disease. [8]

  5. Milk-alkali syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milk-alkali_syndrome

    Milk-alkali syndrome (MAS), also referred to as calcium-alkali syndrome, is the third most common cause of elevated blood calcium levels (hypercalcemia). [2] [3] Milk-alkali syndrome is characterized by hypercalcemia, metabolic alkalosis, and acute kidney injury.

  6. Phosphatase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphatase

    In biochemistry, a phosphatase is an enzyme that uses water to cleave a phosphoric acid monoester into a phosphate ion and an alcohol. Because a phosphatase enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of its substrate , it is a subcategory of hydrolases . [ 1 ]

  7. Reference ranges for blood tests - Wikipedia

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

    Autoantibodies are usually absent or very low, so instead of being given in standard reference ranges, the values usually denote where they are said to be present, or whether the test is a positive test. There may also be an equivocal interval, where it is uncertain whether there is a significantly increased level.

  9. Osteomalacia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osteomalacia

    The major factor is an abnormally low vitamin D concentration in blood serum. [13] Major typical biochemical findings include: [19] Low serum and urinary calcium; Low serum phosphate, except in cases of renal osteodystrophy; Elevated serum alkaline phosphatase (due to an increase in compensatory osteoblast activity)
