Overview

An elevated/reduced concentration of serum/blood/urinary/CSF/other [lab test] is diagnostic of [disease name].

OR

Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of [disease name] include [abnormal test 1], [abnormal test 2], and [abnormal test 3].

OR

[Test] is usually normal for patients with [disease name].

OR

Some patients with [disease name] may have elevated/reduced concentration of [test], which is usually suggestive of [progression/complication].

OR

There are no diagnostic laboratory findings associated with [disease name].

Laboratory Findings

There are no diagnostic laboratory findings associated with [disease name].

OR

An elevated/reduced concentration of serum/blood/urinary/CSF/other [lab test] is diagnostic of [disease name].

OR

[Test] is usually normal among patients with [disease name].

OR

Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of G6PD deficiency include:

• Hemoglobinuria
• Neonatal hyperbilirubinemia
• Elevated Lactate dehydrogenase in hemolysis
• Decreased haptoglobin in hemolysis
• Negative direct antiglobulin test or coombs test in non immumne hemolysis meidated by G6PD

• • Lactate dehydrogenase
  • Lactate dehydrogenase (elevated in hemolysis and a marker of hemolytic severity)
  • Haptoglobin (decreased in hemolysis);
  • A "direct antiglobulin test" (Coombs' test) – this should be negative, as hemolysis in G6PD is not immune-mediated;

OR

Some patients with [disease name] may have elevated/reduced concentration of [test], which is usually suggestive of [progression/complication].
