Ranges

Each lab publishes a reference range for the population groups it tests, usually the middle 95% of results. These intervals describe that population, not an optimal or healthy target. How ranges differ

Single-analyte tests

  • Diabetes Risk Index (DRI) 123855

    Serum · Fasting not stated · Turnaround 2 - 3 days

    Method and collection
    Method
    Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)
    Preparation
    Patient should be fasting for a minimum of eight to 12 hours.
    Collection
    Collect specimen in a lavender-top (EDTA-no gel) tube, which is the preferred specimen. For specimens collected in plain red-top tube, hold tube upright at room temperature for 45 minutes and allow to clot. Centrifuge specimen after clotting according to manufacturer's specifications. Transfer to a transport tube for storage at (2°C to 8°C) until shipped. For NMR LipoTube (black-and-yellow-top tube), keep upright at room temperature for 30 minutes and allow to clot. Centrifuge at 1600 to 1800 xg for 10 to 15 minutes immediately after clotting. If the sample cannot be centrifuged immediately, it must be refrigerated at (2°C to 8°C) and centrifuged within 24 hours of collection. The NMR tube should then be stored at (2°C to 8°C) until shipped. Do not open NMR LipoTube. Separate plasma from lavender-top (EDTA-no gel) tube or green-top (heparin-no gel) tube immediately after collection and transfer to a plastic transport tube for shipment to the laboratory. Serum or plasma drawn in gel-barrier collection tubes other than the NMR LipoTube should not be used.

Panels that include this biomarker

  • Lipid Panel With Diabetes Risk Index (DRI) 123525

    6 analytes · Serum · Fasting not stated · Turnaround 1 - 3 days

    Method and collection
    Method
    Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) Note: The NMR method for Triglycerides, unlike the routine chemical method, is not affected by endogenous glycerol, which might be found in very rare clinical conditions such as Hyperglycerolemia (glycerol kinase deficiency-GKD), an X-linked genetic disorder. Large quantitative differences in the chemical and NMR method results may be attributable to high blood glycerol.

    Patient should be fasting for a minimum of eight to 12 hours.

Verify these ranges and sources

We compile this page from named laboratory catalogs, guidelines and studies. Labs calculate reference intervals from the people they test, for one assay method and one population group, so an interval describes that population rather than an optimal target.
