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.
Tests
Point-of-care measurement of oxygenation, ventilation, acid-base status, and electrolytes in critically ill patients.
Indicators
Calcitonin (32 aa, ~3 kDa) is encoded by the human CALCA gene. This protein is involved in the modulation of blood calcium and phosphate concentrations through promoting incorporation of these ions into bone.
Indicators
An element with atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40.08.
Tests
A calcium blood test measures the amount of calcium in your blood. Too much or too little calcium in your blood may be a sign of a wide range of medical conditions, such as bone disease , thyroid diseas e, parathyroid disorders , kidney disease , and other conditions.
Tests
The determination of the amount of calcium carbonate crystals present in a sample.
Tests
The determination of the amount of the calcium corrected in a biological specimen.
Tests
A calcium in urine test measures the amount of calcium in your urine (pee). If your urine calcium levels aren't normal, it may be a sign of kidney disease , a parathyroid disorder , bone diseas e, or another condition that affects how your body uses calcium.
Tests
A quantitative measurement of the amount of calcium present in a sample.
Tests
The determination of the ratio of calcium to phosphorus in a sample. The measurement may be expressed as a ratio or percentage.
