There are no diagnostic laboratory findings associated with [disease name].
Some patients with Friedreich's ataxia may have an abnormal laboratory findings such as: Decreased serum [[Ceruloplasmin|ceruloplasmin activity]], elevated [[Transaminases|serum transaminases]] and LDH, elevated [[aldolase]], decrease in serum and CSF [[albumins]] as well as a significant increase in CSF [[Globulins|B-globulins]], increase in amounts of [[chylomicrons]], low serum [[cholesterol]] and beta-[[lipoproteins]] and absence of [[acanthocytosis]].
