A blood test measures the levels of certain substances in the blood. Deviations from the tolerance values indicate to the doctor whether a disease is present. Which blood value indicates which illness?<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Albumin<\/strong><\/p>\n Albumin is the fluid distributor in the liver. Deviations from normal values may indicate a kidney disorder, liver cirrhosis or malnutrition.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Alkaline phosphatase<\/strong><\/p>\n This is an enzyme that is found in bones, muscles and liver. An elevated value indicates a tissue disease in these areas.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Antithrombin III (AT 3)<\/strong><\/p>\n AT 3 regulates blood clotting and prevents thrombosis. A low value indicates an increased risk of thrombosis.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Bilirubin<\/strong><\/p>\n Bilirubin is the yellow bile pigment that is formed when red blood cells are broken down. Too high a bilirubin level results in jaundice.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n C-reactive protein (CRP)<\/strong><\/p>\n The protein produced in the liver is part of the body's immune system. If the CRP value is elevated, an inflammation is present.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Fibrinogen<\/strong><\/p>\n A blood clotting protein. An elevated value indicates inflammation or a tumour, a low value indicates liver damage.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n FT3 and FT4<\/strong><\/p>\n Deviations in the levels of these two thyroid hormones indicate an overactive or underactive thyroid.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Gamma GT (GGT)<\/strong><\/p>\n Liver disease may be present if the GGT value is elevated.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT, AST)<\/strong><\/p>\n An enzyme that is responsible for accelerating the metabolism. Deviations in the value indicate non-specific diseases.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Glutamate pyruvate transaminase (GPT,ALT)<\/strong><\/p>\n Too high a GPT value indicates liver damage and muscle diseases.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n HDL<\/strong><\/p>\n HDL is the \"good cholesterol\". Too high a level increases the risk of heart attack and stroke.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Haematocrit (Hk)<\/strong><\/p>\n Hk indicates the level of red blood cells in the blood.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Haemoglobin (Hb)<\/strong><\/p>\n Haemoglobin is the name for the red blood pigment that regulates the oxygen content in the blood. Too little haemoglobin indicates iron deficiency or disorders of blood formation.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n HbA1c<\/strong><\/p>\n The value indicates the blood sugar level up to 8 weeks back.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Creatinine<\/strong><\/p>\n Elevated creatinine levels indicate impaired kidney function.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Creatine kinase (CK)<\/strong><\/p>\n The CK value provides information about the diagnosis of a heart attack.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)<\/strong><\/p>\n Elevated LDH levels in the blood indicate cell or organ damage.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Prostate-specific antigen (PSA)<\/strong><\/p>\n The PSA value is used for the early detection of prostate cancer.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Rheumatoid factor<\/strong><\/p>\n The rheumatoid factor increases in rheumatic diseases.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A blood test measures the levels of certain substances in the blood.
