Hemoglobin. The mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) is a measure of the concentration of hemoglobin in a given volume of packed red blood cell. It is calculated by dividing the hemoglobin by the hematocrit. Reference ranges for blood tests are 32 to 36 g/dL (320 to 360g/L), [1] or between 4.81 and 5.58 mmol/L.
Anti-gliadin antibodies are produced in response to gliadin, a prolamin found in wheat.In bread wheat it is encoded by three different alleles, AA, BB, and DD.These alleles can produce slightly different gliadins, which can cause the body to produce different antibodies.
Potassium accumulates in the blood (hyperkalemia with a range of symptoms including malaise and potentially fatal cardiac arrhythmias).

Common investigations include blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and electrolytes, liver function tests, urinalysis, [35] and thyroid function tests. Hematological investigations include hematocrit levels, which are usually raised in HG. [35] An ultrasound scan may be needed to know gestational status and to exclude molar or partial molar pregnancy. [37]
