When two-thirds of healthy children, year after year, are found to have a laboratory value that you are labeling "abnormal," it may be the definition, and not their health, that is off.
In the case of certain blood and urine tests, a normal laboratory value is one that falls within a range that represents most healthy individuals.
For each laboratory value assessed (platelet count, aspartate aminotransferase activity, and lactate dehydrogenase activity), the corticosteroid groups differed significantly from the no-treatment group (P ≤.002 for all).
The curve fitting parameters are adjusted to set the plateau of the curve at the laboratory value.
We plotted the average of each paired analysis against the difference for the same pair (central laboratory value − POCT value).
This characteristic abnormality of laboratory value shown by FDP was not observed in aPTT, PT, and Fbg; therefore, elevated FDP may have a more diagnostic value as a predictive marker than other aPTT, PT, and Fbg.
The majority had an exclusionary laboratory value, including eight participants with a CD4 T cell count less than 350 cells/mm3 and five participants with an HIV-RNA less than 1000 copies/mL.
There were no clinical correlations of these laboratory value changes.
None had PLTCs under the normal laboratory value.
If a procedure is performed to deal with abnormal laboratory value, the abnormal laboratory value is a clinical event and will be recorded.
There were no clinical consequences associated with these observed laboratory value changes.
