Q

Summarize the total serum cholesterol lab

A

Cholesterol is a fat like substance which is found in blood, bile, brain tissue. The function of cholesterol itself is uncertain but is used in the body to synthesize bio acids, sex hormones, vitamin D3. Total cholesterol includes cholesterol and cholesterol esters. Increased cholesterol values may be found in diabetes nephroptosis obstructive jaundice or hypothyroidism. Decreased values may be found in hyperthyroidism severe infections and intestinal obstructions. The normal value for cholesterol esters is 70% of total cholesterol.

Q

Summarize the urine lab

A

Urine is in excretory product of the kitty consisting of many waste products of metabolism dissolved in water. The average adult excretes between a leader and a leader and a half of urine each day. It is slightly acidic. The following inorganic ions are present in urine bicarbonate chloride phosphate sulfate ammonium potassium and sodium. The most abundant organic compounds in urine is creatinine, urea and uric acid. Creatinine is produced during muscular activity, urea is the end product of proteins cannibalism and uric acid results from nucleic acid breakdown.
