What This Test Measures
Your blood sample will be analyzed for multiple biomarkers, including markers related to inflammation, cholesterol metabolism, and vascular health. These tests may include measurements for proteins like high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), lipoprotein(a), and others that contribute to cardiovascular risk assessment.
Why It Matters for Your Health
Cardiovascular diseases are a leading cause of death worldwide. Early detection of risk factors can help you and your healthcare provider take proactive steps, such as lifestyle changes or medical interventions, to reduce your risk.
How the Test Works
The test uses a specialized immunoassay probe to detect and quantify specific proteins in your serum. This method is highly sensitive and can identify subtle changes in biomarkers that may not be detectable by traditional methods.
Preparation for the Test
No special preparation is needed for this test. You may eat and drink normally before your blood draw. However, inform your healthcare provider if you are taking any medications, as some may affect your test results.
Reference range
Not detected (Negative)N/A
No special patient preparation required. Specimen should be collected prior to initiation of antifungal therapy when possible.
