A low GSR ( glutathione reductase) in relation to kidney function indicates that an infection is possible. Low levels of GSR can indicate pseudomonas and staph infections.
It is close to becoming an exact answer too a whole number!!
AGAP refers to anion gap, which is the result of either the positive or negative charge in the blood. A low AGAP is not common, but may indicate multiple myeloma.
i really don't no if i find out I'll tell u thx hope this helps!
Yes, they can. Centigrade (Celsius) can go as low as -273.15 degrees C. The same temperature on the Fahrenheit scale is -459.67 degrees -- both indicate absolute zero (0K). A notable difference caused by having "degrees" of two different sizes and definitions is that negative temperatures on Celsius indicate "below the freezing point of water" (0 degrees C), while below freezing on the Fahrenheit scale includes positive values from 31 down to 0, the freezing point being 32 degrees F.
Low clearance values for creatinine and urea indicate diminished ability of the kidneys to filter these waste products from the blood and excrete them in the urine. As clearance levels decrease, blood levels of creatinine and.
Creatinine clearance is a measure of kidney function. Patients are on dialysis because their kidneys do not function properly thus their creatinine clearance would be very, very low. Some patients may have some residual kidney function but their creatinine clearance would be less than probably 10 ml/min.
Low creatinine levels may indicate kidney dysfunction or muscle loss, since creatinine is a waste product filtered by the kidneys and produced by muscles. Low levels can also be caused by certain medications or conditions affecting muscle mass. Further medical evaluation is needed to determine the underlying cause.
A low creatinine level could indicate decreased muscle mass, malnutrition, or liver disease. It may also result from a reduced production of creatinine due to conditions such as advanced age or certain medications. It is important to consult a healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and interpretation of the results.

A urine creatinine level of 47 is considered low and may indicate kidney dysfunction or muscle loss. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and any necessary follow-up testing.
Urine creatinine is a waste product excreted by the kidneys and can be used to estimate kidney function. It is often measured in conjunction with other tests to assess kidney health, muscle mass, and hydration status. High or low levels of urine creatinine can indicate issues with kidney function or other health conditions.
On a multimeter, a high resistance would indicate a high Ohmic value and a low resistance would indicate a low Ohmic value. Specific values would be relative to device you are measuring.
If you're asking about creatinine clearance, it depends on what you refer to as 'low'. A normal clearance is 0.8-1.4 mg/dl in males and 0.6-1.1 mg/dl in women, so if your creatinine is in that range ( i.e 'low'), no intervention is necessary.If you're referring to an elevated creatinine and therefore 'low' function, it depends on your level and how your body is responding to it. Every patient is different, and while some patients need dialysis intervention at say, 5 mg/dl, some can hold off until 9 mg/dl. This also depends on your age, race, and sex. A GFR (glomerular filtration rate) can be calculated based on the above mention cavits and your creatinine value and give you a estimate of your kidney function. At a GFR of 30, you should see a nephrologist. At 20, you can be evaluated for transplant. At 15, you should be on dialysis or actively seeking a transplant.There are many websites with GFR calculators, though you should always consult your nephrologist.MKidney Transplant Nurse and PKD patient
Low creatinine levels in urine during an EtG test can be caused by dilution of urine from excessive hydration or kidney dysfunction that impairs the production of creatinine. In forensic settings, low creatinine levels can indicate attempts to adulterate or falsify the results of the EtG test by consuming excessive fluids.
Low creatinine levels can be a sign of underlying health conditions such as kidney dysfunction, malnutrition, or muscle loss. It is important to discuss low creatinine levels with a healthcare provider to determine the underlying cause and appropriate treatment.
I'm sure some MDs might happen upon this question, but rather than run the risk of getting someone less qualified to make an educated guess I suggest you talk with your MD. He/she ordered your tests and will be happy to explain them. Both of those values indicate kidney function, but only your MD can asses your past and current medical history and come to a valid conclusion as to exactly how these values matter to you. To say they're good or bad lab values would be assessing the lab values and not you the patient.
