⭕️ Homocysteine, which is above the norm, is considered a risk factor for autoimmune processes. ❓What is HOMOCYSTEINE❓ - it is a sulfur-containing amino acid that is present in small quantities in all cells of the human body. ❗️It is the result of the metabolism of methionine, which is not reproduced by the body, but comes from food. Folic acid and vitamins B6, B12 are required for metabolism. In healthy cells, homocysteine is quickly converted into other substances. If a person has a deficiency of these vitamins, the level of homocysteine may be increased. Normally, this substance is produced in the body in small quantities, and its excess is neutralized by folic acid and the enzymes MTRR, MTHFR and MTR. In case of disruption of the activity of these enzymes in the body, an excess of homocysteine may form. 🚨🔥 Smoking, a sedentary lifestyle, excessive coffee consumption, and vitamin deficiency can provoke an increase in homocysteine. ⬆️ Elevated homocysteine levels require close attention and consistency in reducing them through diet, exercise, and...

🔬 Cytological examination (C.d.) plays an important role in the detection of many diseases, primarily malignant neoplasms. ____________________________________ 🔺 C.d. is a method that allows you to assess qualitative and quantitative changes in cells, as well as to detect the presence of extracellular and intracellular inclusions and microorganisms. ➡️➡️➡️ So, the main goal of passing the analysis is to detect pathological cells before they become malignant. ____________________________________ ‼️ Historically, C.d. has saved many women's lives. Around the world, cytological smear is the main method of preventing cervical cancer. Early detection and timely treatment of precancerous diseases of the cervix (dysplasia) prevents the development of cancer, thereby reducing the number of deaths from the disease. ____________________________________ 💯 The effectiveness and accuracy of a cytological smear depends on: - Compliance with the rules of preparation; - Taking into account the type of lesion in a woman; - The quality of taking the material; - Qualitative staining of the smear; - Qualifications of the cytologist; - Availability of practical and theoretical experience of the cytologist in working with traditional smears; - Standardization of the formation and issuance of conclusions by the cytologist.

🍬Glucose is a component of the blood that is responsible for carbohydrate metabolism and is the main universal source of energy for most body cells, especially brain tissue and nerve cells. Most of the energy that our body consumes is formed due to the oxidation of glucose. Glucose enters the cells through food, ensuring metabolic processes. The concentration of glucose in the blood is regulated by hormones. 💡The hormone "Insulin" is the main controller of the level of glucose in human blood, stimulating the formation of glycogen and triglycerides and significantly reducing the level of glucose in the blood⬇️. 💡The hormones glucagon, cortisol, adrenaline, somatotropin, thyrotropin, T3, T4 (thyroid indicators) increase the content of glucose in the blood⬆️. The concentration of glucose in the blood is maintained mainly by the "glucose-insulin-glucagon" mechanism. A study of the content of glucose in the blood is intended primarily for diagnostic control, monitoring the treatment of carbohydrate metabolism disorders. 🚨To obtain accurate values, blood sampling is performed after preliminary preparation: - do not change your diet for 24 hours before blood sampling; - avoid excessive amounts of sweets in the evening; -...

WHAT DOES D-dimer TELL YOU ABOUT? Doctors always prescribe a D-dimer blood test for patients who are sick or have had COVID-19. COVID-19, according to the International Society of Thrombosis and Hemostasis, is 3-4 times more likely to increase the level of D-dimer in the blood, which can lead to blood clotting and the risk of thrombosis. Timely monitoring of this indicator helps the doctor prescribe the necessary treatment - anticoagulants, which significantly reduce the risk of thrombosis, which can be a complication of an infectious disease. ❗️ Medi Lab+ Medical Laboratory recommends a D-dimer test (quantitative determination) to diagnose the level of blood clotting. ❗️ Medi Lab+ Medical Laboratory guarantees the results of the test within one day. D-dimer is a protein fragment formed when a blood clot dissolves, which occurs during blood clotting. Normally, the amount of D-dimer in the blood is 0-0.55 μg FEU / ml. A sharp increase in the concentration of D-dimers may indicate a large number of blood clots in the vascular bed, which may more often indicate...

🔬 In laboratory diagnostics, the analysis for the determination of H. pylori antigen in human stool samples is used as a non-invasive method for the diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection in patients with gastrointestinal symptoms. 🧫 Helibacter pulori - a species of bacteria of the genus Helicobacter - a small, spiral-shaped, jutted bacterium that can be found in the gastric mucus layer or attached to the gastric epithelium. It is considered the etiological factor of more than half of all gastrointestinal diseases. It is the main cause of gastric ulcer, duodenal ulcer, acute and chronic gastritis, non-ulcer dyspepsia. Detection of H. pylori antigens - a rapid, high-quality and sensitive immunochromatographic assay that uses the interaction of particles coated with antibodies to H. pylori with anti-Ig G, which allows for the qualitative and selective detection of specific antigens (Ag) of H. pylori in human stool samples in a short period of time. ‼️The collected sample must be delivered within 🕕24 hours in a sterile container. During collection, avoid contact with urine and contaminated water...

🧩 Pancreatic elastase (PE) is a diagnostic marker for exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. 🔋 Pancreatic elastase is present in the body of every person from birth. The study of PE in feces is an informative, highly sensitive, highly specific non-invasive method of assessing the state of the pancreas, which does not require interruption of enzyme replacement therapy. This study is part of the "gold standard" for diagnosing pancreatic pathology. ♻️ PE - an enzyme, a product of the activity of the pancreas; in the form of inactive proelastase, it is secreted as part of the pancreatic secretion into the intestine, where it becomes active under the influence of trypsin and begins to break down proteins. This specific enzyme does not disintegrate during digestion; it can only be determined in feces! It is not part of tissues or internal organs. ✅ This analysis is intended to differentiate one or another pathology of the gastrointestinal tract (GI). According to the level of PE can determine: - the state of the pancreas, its functionality and the level of deformation in the body. - if chronic exocrine insufficiency is suspected...

💡Get to know C-Reactive Protein! 💉C-reactive protein is a very sensitive blood element that reacts more quickly than others to tissue damage. The presence of reactive protein in blood serum is a sign of an inflammatory process, trauma, and the penetration of foreign microorganisms into the body - bacteria, parasites, fungi. 💉C-reactive protein stimulates protective reactions, activates immunity. It is absent in the blood serum of a healthy person or is produced in minimal quantities. 💉C-reactive protein is produced mainly by liver cells, as a reaction to the entry of infectious agents into the human body, trauma, and also in systemic connective tissue diseases (rheumatic diseases). 🔬When should laboratory tests for C-reactive protein be performed? 🔹Exacerbation of chronic inflammatory diseases; 🔹 Myocardial infarction; 🔹 Assessment of the degree of tissue damage; 🔹 Bacterial or viral infection; 🔹 Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis; 🔹 Rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus; 🔹 Determining the risk of cardiovascular diseases; 🔹 Predicting the severity of inflammatory diseases. 📍In case of COVID-19, C-reactive protein is one of the most important diagnostic indicators. 📍It is important to consider that for effective use, the indicator must have...

⛑ One of the most common infections in the world, which is considered an acute viral disease. ☄️ The causative agent of chickenpox (chickenpox) and herpes zoster (Varicella-zoster virus, VZV), or, so-called, human herpesvirus type 3 (HVL) belong to the Herpesviridae family, the Varicella virus genus and are two variants of the same virus, which has the smallest genome among herpesviruses, causing two diseases. 🚨 The source of infection is a patient with chickenpox, rarely with herpes zoster. The only reservoir of infection is a person, VZV is transmitted by airborne droplets, as well as through the placenta. Chickenpox occurs mainly in children🐣, asymptomatic course is extremely rare. A sick person is dangerous to others during the last 10 days of the incubation period and the first 5-7 days from the moment of the appearance of the rash. ❗️The general incubation period of VZV is 10-21 days❗️ The course of chickenpox is especially dangerous for pregnant women🤰🏼 and people aged >20 years and occurs in the form of the following complications: pneumonia, bullous streptoderma, lymphadenitis, disorders...
