Tests
A proprietary chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay (CMIA) used for the qualitative detection of IgG antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 in human serum and plasma on the Abbott ARCHITECT i system. The persistence of immunoglobulin class G (IgG) antibodies may identify people who have been infected in the past, recovered from the illness, and possibly developed immunity.

Tests
A chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay (CMIA) used for the qualitative detection of IgM antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 in human serum and plasma on the Abbott ARCHITECT i system. The presence of IgM antibodies may be associated with recent infection or may assist with the evaluation of disease course.

Indicators
Adiponectin (244 aa, ~26 kDa) is encoded by the human ADIPOQ gene. This protein is involved in the modulation of both glucose metabolism and lipid homeostasis.
Glossary Term
The goodness of fit statistic for the terminal elimination phase, adjusted for the number of time points used in the estimation of Lambda z.

Glossary Term
A volatile liquid prepared by fermentation of certain carbohydrates. Alcohol acts as a central nervous system (CNS) depressant, a diuretic, and a disinfectant. Although the exact mechanism of CNS depression is unknown, alcohol may act by inhibiting the opening of calcium channels, mediated by the binding of the inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA) to GABA-A receptors, or through inhibitory actions at N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-type glutamate receptors. Alcohol inhibits the production of antidiuretic hormone, thereby producing diuresis that may lead to dehydration. This agent kills organisms by denaturing their proteins.
