  2. Urine anion gap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urine_anion_gap

    A negative urine anion gap suggests a high urinary NH 4 + (e.g. diarrhea). References This page was last edited on 22 July 2024, at 21:49 (UTC). Text is ...

  3. CD4+/CD8+ ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD4+/CD8+_ratio

    An inverted CD4 + /CD8 + ratio (namely, less than 1/1) indicates an impaired immune system. [3] [4] [5] Conversely, an increased CD4 + /CD8 + ratio corresponds to increased immune function. [6] Obesity and dysregulated lipid metabolism in the liver leads to loss of CD4 +, but not CD8 + cells, contributing to the induction of liver cancer. [7]

  4. Microalbuminuria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microalbuminuria

    This is termed the albumin/creatinine ratio (ACR) [10] and microalbuminuria is defined as ACR ≥3.5 mg/mmol (female) or ≥2.5 mg/mmol (male), [11] or with both substances measured by mass, as an ACR between 30 and 300 μg albumin/mg creatinine. [12] For the diagnosis of microalbuminuria, care must be taken when collecting sample for the urine ...

  5. Relative density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_density

    Since the density of dry air at 101.325 kPa at 20 °C is [10] 0.001205 g/cm 3 and that of water is 0.998203 g/cm 3 we see that the difference between true and apparent relative densities for a substance with relative density (20 °C/20 °C) of about 1.100 would be 0.000120. Where the relative density of the sample is close to that of water (for ...

  6. Aldosterone-to-renin ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aldosterone-to-renin_ratio

    The cutoff normal individuals from those with primary hyperaldosteronism is significantly affected by the conditions of testing, such as posture and time of day. On average, an ARR cutoff of 23.6 ng/dL per ng/(mL·h), expressed in alternative units as 651 pmol/L per μg/(L·h), has been estimated to have a sensitivity of 97% and specificity of 94%. [2]

  7. High-g training - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-G_training

    The 20 g centrifuge at the NASA Ames Research Center. High-g training is done by aviators and astronauts who are subject to high levels of acceleration ('g'). It is designed to prevent a g-induced loss of consciousness (g-LOC), a situation when the action of g-forces moves the blood away from the brain to the extent that consciousness is lost.

  8. Gravity (alcoholic beverage) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity_(alcoholic_beverage)

    The ratio depends on the temperature and pressure of both the sample and water. The pressure is always considered (in brewing) to be 1 standard atmosphere (1,013.25 hPa) and the temperature is usually 20 °C (68 °F) for both sample and water but in some parts of the world different temperatures may be used and there are hydrometers sold ...

  9. Advanced glycation end-product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_glycation_end-product

    In a 1997 study, diabetic and healthy subjects were given a single meal of egg white (56 g protein), cooked with or without 100 g of fructose; there was a greater than 200-fold increase in AGE immunoreactivity from the meal with fructose. [37]
