  • Amylase

    Amylase - Parameters: 1

    A class of hydrolases known as amylases breaks down complex carbs into smaller pieces. To help break down starch, the salivary glands and exocrine pancreas generate amylase. The mucosa of the small intestine, the ovaries, the placenta, the liver, and the fallopian tubes all manufacture it as well. Pancreatic diagnostics heavily relies on α-amylase findings due to the scarcity of some clinical signs associated with pancreatic disorders. They are mostly employed in the identification and observation of acute pancreatitis. H However, macroamylasemia can also occur in cases of renal failure (reduced glomerular filtration), ovaries or lung tumours, pulmonary inflammation, diseases of the salivary gland, diabetic ketoacidosis, cerebral trauma, surgical procedures, and acute pancreatitis or the inflammatory phase of chronic pancreatitis.

  • Creatinine

    Creatinine - Parameters: 1

    The test most frequently used to evaluate renal function is the creatinine assay in serum or plasma. A byproduct of creatine phosphate breakdown in muscle, creatinine is typically produced by the body at a fairly steady rate (dependent on muscle mass). Under normal circumstances, it is not significantly reabsorbed by the tubules after being freely filtered by the glomeruli. Additionally, a tiny but substantial amount is actively secreted.

  • Urea

    Urea - Parameters: 1

    The main byproduct of protein nitrogen metabolism is urea. It is created in the liver via the urea cycle from ammonia, which is created by the deamination of amino acids. The majority of urea excretion comes from the kidneys, but small amounts are also expelled through perspiration and broken down by bacteria in the intestines. The most used test for screening renal function is blood urea nitrogen determination. It can help with the differential diagnosis of prerenal, renal, and postrenal azotemia when combined with serum creatinine measurements. Blood urea nitrogen concentrations are elevated in renal-related conditions such as tubular necrosis, glomerular-nephritis (renal causes), shock, reduced blood volume, chronic nephritis, nephrosclerosis, and urinary tract blockage (postrenal causes). Additionally, transient spikes may be observed during times when protein intake is substantial. Liver illnesses are characterised by unpredictable levels.
