Overview
An elevated/reduced concentration of serum/blood/urinary/CSF/other [lab test] is diagnostic of [disease name].
OR
Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of [disease name] include [abnormal test 1], [abnormal test 2], and [abnormal test 3].
OR
[Test] is usually normal for patients with [disease name].
OR
Some patients with [disease name] may have elevated/reduced concentration of [test], which is usually suggestive of [progression/complication].
OR
There are no diagnostic laboratory findings associated with [disease name].
Laboratory Findings
An elevated concentration of WBC, thrombocytopenia, normocytic anemia is diagnostic of HUS.[1][2]
OR
Immunohistochemistry usually normal among patients with HUS
OR
Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of HUS include:[3]
- Anemia
- Thrombocytopenia
- [Abnormal test 3]
OR
Some patients with HUS may have bone marrow normal to increased megakaryocytes , which is usually suggestive of [progression/complication].
