Glossary Term
A statistical method used for multiple testing corrections to control the expected proportion of false positives (Type I error) among rejected tests or hypotheses. It is less stringent than other multiple testing corrections and thereby, will allow a percentage of false positives.
Performance Metrics
Tests
The determination of the amount of fatty acid binding protein 4 in a sample.
For professionals
Indicators
Fatty acid-binding protein, heart (133 aa, ~15 kDa) is encoded by the human FABP3 gene. This protein plays a role in the intracellular transport of long-chain fatty acids and their acyl-CoA esters.
Tests
A free light chains test measures the level of free light chains in your blood. Light chains are proteins made by plasma cells, a type of white blood cell. Light chains usually link up with other proteins called heavy chains. Together, the light and heavy chains make immunoglobulins, also called antibodies. Antibodies are proteins that your immune system makes to fight germs such as viruses and bacteria .

Tests
The determination of the amount of free proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 present in a sample.
For professionals
Tests
A glucose in urine test measures the amount of glucose in your urine (pee). Glucose is a type of sugar. It is your body's main source of energy. Glucose comes from the food you eat. Your body breaks down most of that food into glucose and releases it into your bloodstream. Your blood carries glucose to your cells for energy.

Tests
This test measures the amount of haptoglobin in your blood. Haptoglobin is a protein made by your liver to get rid of the hemoglobin outside your red blood cells.

Tests
A hematocrit test is a blood test that measures the amount (percent) of your blood that is made up of red blood cells. Red blood cells carry oxygen from your lungs to the rest of your body. The other parts of your blood include white blood cells (to help fight infection and other diseases), platelets (to help make blood clots to stop bleeding ), and a liquid called plasma.

Tests
Hemoglobin electrophoresis is a test that measures the different types of hemoglobin in the blood. It also checks for hemoglobinopathy, disorders involving abnormal types of hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is a protein in your red blood cells. It carries oxygen from your lungs to the rest of your body. There are a few different types of normal and abnormal hemoglobin.
For everyone & professionals
Tests
A hemoglobin test measures the levels of hemoglobin in your blood. Hemoglobin is an iron-rich protein in your red blood cells. It carries oxygen from your lungs to the rest of your body. Your cells need oxygen to grow, reproduce, and make energy for you to function. Your hemoglobin levels provide information about the health of your red blood cells. If your hemoglobin levels are abnormal, it may be a sign that you have a blood disorder .
