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. Leukopenia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leukopenia

   Neutropenia, a subtype of leukopenia, refers to a decrease in the number of circulating neutrophil granulocytes, the most abundant white blood cells.The terms leukopenia and neutropenia may occasionally be used interchangeably, as the neutrophil count is the most important indicator of infection risk.

4. Absolute neutrophil count - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_neutrophil_count

   Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) is a measure of the number of neutrophil granulocytes [1] (also known as polymorphonuclear cells, PMN's, polys, granulocytes, segmented neutrophils or segs) present in the blood. Neutrophils are a type of white blood cell that fights against infection.

5. Risk difference - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Risk_difference

   Equivalently, if the risk of an outcome is decreased by the exposure, the term absolute risk reduction (ARR) is used, and computed as . [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The inverse of the absolute risk reduction is the number needed to treat , and the inverse of the absolute risk increase is the number needed to harm .

6. Oxygen saturation (medicine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_saturation_(medicine)

   An SaO 2 (arterial oxygen saturation) value below 90% causes hypoxia (which can also be caused by anemia). Hypoxia due to low SaO 2 is indicated by cyanosis, but oxygen saturation does not directly reflect tissue oxygenation. The affinity of hemoglobin to oxygen may impair or enhance oxygen release at the tissue level.

7. Blood gas tension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_gas_tension

   Blood gas tension refers to the partial pressure of gases in blood. [1] There are several significant purposes for measuring gas tension. [2] The most common gas tensions measured are oxygen tension (P x O 2), carbon dioxide tension (P x CO 2) and carbon monoxide tension (P x CO). [3]

8. Fibrinogen - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibrinogen

   Fibrinogen is made and secreted into the blood primarily by liver hepatocyte cells. Endothelium cells are also reported to make small amounts of fibrinogen, but this fibrinogen has not been fully characterized; blood platelets and their precursors, bone marrow megakaryocytes, while once thought to make fibrinogen, are now known to take up and store but not make the glycoprotein.

9. Symmetric mean absolute percentage error - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetric_mean_absolute...

   The absolute difference between A t and F t is divided by half the sum of absolute values of the actual value A t and the forecast value F t. The value of this calculation is summed for every fitted point t and divided again by the number of fitted points n .
