    On the first day, they'd have 100 mg in their system; their body would clear 10 mg, leaving 90 mg. On the second day, the patient would have 190 mg in total; their body would clear 19 mg, leaving 171 mg. On the third day, they'd be up to 271 mg total; their body would clear 27 mg, leaving 244 mg.

  4. Blood sugar level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_sugar_level

    A 90 percent reference interval for serum glucose of 26 to 181 mg/dL has been reported for captured mountain goats (Oreamnos americanus), where no effects of the pursuit and capture on measured levels were evident. [17] For beluga whales, the 25–75 percent range for serum glucose has been estimated to be 94 to 115 mg/dL. [18]

  5. Blood alcohol content - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_alcohol_content

    For example, in the 1930s Widmark measured alcohol and blood by mass, and thus reported his concentrations in units of g/kg or mg/g, weight alcohol per weight blood. Blood is denser than water and 1 mL of blood has a mass of approximately 1.055 grams, thus a mass-volume BAC of 1 g/L corresponds to a mass-mass BAC of 0.948 mg/g.

  6. Hyperglycemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperglycemia

    In general, the normal range for most people (fasting adults) is about 4 to 6 mmol/L or 80 to 110 mg/dL. (where 4 mmol/L or 80 mg/dL is "optimal".) A subject with a consistent range above 7 mmol/L or 126 mg/dL is generally held to have hyperglycemia, whereas a consistent range below 4 mmol/L or 70 mg/dL is considered hypoglycemic.

  7. Total iron-binding capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_iron-binding_capacity

    Transferrin (mg/dL) = 0.8 x TIBC (μg of iron/dL) – 43; Transferrin (mg/dL) = 0.7 x TIBC (μg of iron/dL) To measure TIBC in the blood is less expensive than a direct measurement of transferrin. [4] [5] The TIBC should not be confused with the unsaturated iron-binding capacity or UIBC (LOINC 2501-5, 22753-8 & 35216-1). The UIBC is calculated ...

  9. Alcohol (drug) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_(drug)

    Death from ethanol consumption is possible when blood alcohol levels reach 0.4%. A blood level of 0.5% or more is commonly fatal. The oral median lethal dose (LD 50) of ethanol in rats is 5,628 mg/kg. Directly translated to human beings, this would mean that if a person who weighs 70 kg (150 lb) drank a 500 mL (17 US fl oz) glass of pure ...
