What are the comprehensive laboratory tests and what is their importance?

It is strongly recommended to conduct annual examinations to detect early body diseases and not to lead to complications of the disease. Many diseases that occur in the body usually start without symptoms on the body. Perhaps one of the stories that we can supply a lot in this area. Once a 20-year-old girl came to us for routine tests and blood cancer was discovered and treated and now we are back in the laboratory after she was cured of leukemia.

And once again came a woman doing routine tests and when we worked to check the breast, we found a mass size of one cm was taken under the local anesthesia and found that it was cancer in the breast was removed tumor only with the preservation of the breast and still so far with the passage of 8 years free of any traces of cancer . A third story of a 19-year-old girl brought her mother to the lab because she lost weight more than normal. The girl said she was a special dieter, but after her examination, she found out she had diabetes for a long time due to a high amount of HBA1c. . With the treatment the girl began to return to her usual health. Of all these stories, we find that many diseases and tumors can be prevented or at least underestimated if we have a good habit of conducting routine routine tests.

Comprehensive tests are a set of tests that require knowledge of the efficiency of the body’s vital functions. And the possibility of cancerous diseases in the blood or in other organs. The details of the tests are as follows:

If urine is found in the urine with sugar, this may be a sign of the presence of diabetes with the change of acidity of the blood (ie, diabetes is advanced and needs urgent treatment, otherwise it leads to fainting). If there is sand (crystal) in the urine may be a sign of the existence of a particular type of gravel, for example, the crystal of the york has a different form of calcium or phosphate acids.

From this crystal we can make other tests to eliminate the gravel at the beginning. The presence of nitrates in the urine may indicate the presence of bacterial infections as the bacteria when they multiply produce nitrate. As we increase the incidence of kidney infections in the urine, there is an increase in white blood cells from the normal rate in urine. If these white balls increase, this indicates the presence of infections in the urethra, we recommend a bacterial farm for urine to identify the type of bacteria and antibiotics sensitive to them . The presence of blood in the urine may be the result of an atmosphere of inflammation in the urine or as a result of sand or gravel in the urethra or as a result of the presence of enlargement of the prostate in men or the result of chronic non-bacterial infections and the presence of blood in the urine may be the result of the presence of immunological infections of the kidney and this requires speed In diagnosis so as not to damage the kidneys and forced to cultivate a new kidney. Also forget that the presence of blood in the urine may be a sign of the presence of cancer cells in the urinary tract. In this case, the patient is advised to perform microscopic examination of the cells in the urine.

The presence of albumin “proteins” in the urine is of several indications, but the amount of a few may be the result of inflammation in the urinary tract, especially in the kidneys. If the amount is large, it is feared to be caused by the atmosphere and inflammation caused by a defect in the immune kidney. And of course the latter treatment is completely different from the first, and here we may need to work pooling Paul for 24 hours to know the real amount of protein leaks into urine. Not to mention that the leakage of proteins in the urine if not treated may be harmful in the human body as it leads to a shortage of proteins in the blood, which leads to the accumulation of fluids in the body and frequent clots in the veins. And the prolapse of proteins in the urine may lead to renal failure if not treated.

The presence of an increase in the proportion of yolk in the urine is if the result of increased bilirubin is usually the result of inflammation or disorder in the liver. If the result of an increase in the substance of yirulogen may be due to the presence of breakage in red blood cells such as degenerative disease, or hemodialysis or sickle cell disease.

Second: Blood tests: It includes blood strength by knowing the amount of hemoglobin. The size of the redjack balls gives us a clear idea of ​​whether there is an iron or there is a possibility of thalassemia. If the size of the blood cells is large (greater than normal), there is a possibility of vitamin B12 deficiency or deficiency of folic acid. The form of red blood cells may give us an indication of the presence of sickle cell anemia if it is a sickle. Or an enlarged spleen (if there are balls in the center). Or there is cirrhosis in the bone marrow if there are red balls in the form of a “teardrop”. Of course, there is no room for listing all these changes. White blood cells. If the number is excessive, it gives us indications whether there is inflammation of the body or not, or that this increase represents the beginning of blood cancer. If it is a cancer in the blood, it is of any kind. If the number is small, it also gives us indications that there is a weakness in the bone marrow that the bone marrow may be metabolized by cancerous cells.

Third: Liver function tests: It is used to detect the presence of inflammation in the liver and the strength of this inflammation and to know the efficiency of the liver in the manufacture of proteins and albumin and materials Almqlta. The increase in liver enzymes, especially SGOT and SGPT, indicates inflammation in the liver, and these are certain indications that the amount of these enzymes is more than 100 times the normal rate.

The small increase is either the result of increased fat on the liver or alcohol intake. An increase in the enzyme Alkaline phosphatase gives indications that bile ducts are the main cause of liver disorder. In order to increase liver enzymes, we can direct ourselves to subsequent tests. If there is a suspicion that the disorder is a result of viral infection, it is strongly recommended that the work of the examination of hepatitis B & C or the work of immunological tests that attack the liver as each of these types of treatment. However, if the height is caused by a defect in the bile ducts, it should be neutralized if this abnormality is outside the liver (as a result of gallstones blocking the course of the bile ducts) or as a result of inflammation or a cancerous tumor (usually in the pancreas at the end of the bile ducts). Liver cancer or tumors spread to the liver here may raise the enzymes slightly elevated, but at the same time lead to an increase in the signs of hormones associated with cancer tumors such as lifting alpha fete protein or raise the hormone CEA. In addition to other tests, we can identify the cause of this problem.

Fourthly: Kidney function is checked to see if there are any beginnings of renal failure or not. For example, the rise of burea or creatinine in the blood gives the indication that the kidney does not work properly and therefore must know the cause. If other indicators indicate inflammation, inflammation should be treated to restore the function.

Fifth: Fat tests: It reveals whether the patient is suffering from high cholesterol or triglycerides or an increase in low-density lipids that cause severe damage to the arteries of the heart. Some of these elevations are the result of a genetic defect. It is advisable for the patient to carry out the genetic tests that cause this increase. If the vinegar is the result of a particular food, obesity or associated disease (diabetes), the patient is advised to follow special instructions to get rid of excess fat.

Sixth: Tests of salts of the body: Sodium, potassium, chloride and calcium are used. As for sodium, the increase may lead to fainting and may be an indication of the presence of a pituitary, disease or tumor in the pituitary gland in the patient. A decrease in sodium may be due to an increase in ADH hormone either as a result of tumor or pituitary dysfunction. Potassium is a very important salt to be concentrated in narrow and critical rates, as increasing it may lead to a disturbance in the heart muscle and then stop altogether. This increase may be a result of kidney disease or in the case of hyperglycemia in patients with diabetes in the case of fainting diabetes. Potassium may be an indication of a tumor in the adrenal gland, kidney dysfunction or certain drugs such as pressure medications and lead to severe muscle and body weakness. The increase of calcium may mean that the patient suffers from problems in the thyroid gland and therefore find that the patient suffers from pain in the stomach and fatigue in the body and mental disorder. Calcium deficiency may be due to poor absorption or lack of nutrition and cause general weakness of the body with depression and osteoporosis. Chloride deficiency is usually associated with sodium and sodium, which gives indications of kidney function, dehydration and other things.

Seventh: Specialized cancer tests, although these are not included in the routine tests for general detection, but it is possible to work on blood according to the clinical examination of the person who asked for these tests. , The doctor asks for the hormones that are associated with the various cancers. The tumors that can be detected in the blood are as follows: leukemia, liver cancer, colon cancer, stomach cancer, cancers of the lymph nodes, prostate cancer, pancreatic cancer, cervical cancer, Breast cancer, testicular cancer, and thyroid cancer.

Laboratory tests should be accompanied by clinical or radiological examinations in some cases, which in turn may contribute to understanding any abnormalities in laboratory properties.
