  2. Human body temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_body_temperature

    Normal human body temperature ( normothermia, euthermia) is the typical temperature range found in humans. The normal human body temperature range is typically stated as 36.5–37.5 °C (97.7–99.5 °F). [8] [9] Human body temperature varies. It depends on sex, age, time of day, exertion level, health status (such as illness and menstruation ...

  3. Triiodothyronine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triiodothyronine

    Triiodothyronine, also known as T3, is a thyroid hormone. It affects almost every physiological process in the body, including growth and development, metabolism, body temperature, and heart rate. [1]

  4. Thyroid hormones - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyroid_hormones

    The major form of thyroid hormone in the blood is thyroxine (T 4), whose half-life of around one week is longer than that of T 3. In humans, the ratio of T 4 to T 3 released into the blood is approximately 14:1. T 4 is converted to the active T 3 (three to four times more potent than T 4) within cells by deiodinases (5′-deiodinase).

  5. Clotting time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clotting_time

    The normal range of clotting times is 2-8 minutes. For the measurement of clotting time by the test tube method, blood is placed in a glass test tube and kept at 37°C. The required time for the blood to clot is measured. There are several other methods, including testing for those on blood thinners, such as heparin or warfarin.

  6. Reference ranges for blood tests - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_ranges_for_blood...

    v. t. e. Reference ranges (reference intervals) for blood tests are sets of values used by a health professional to interpret a set of medical test results from blood samples. Reference ranges for blood tests are studied within the field of clinical chemistry (also known as "clinical biochemistry", "chemical pathology" or "pure blood chemistry ...

  7. Euthyroid sick syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euthyroid_sick_syndrome

    Euthyroid sick syndrome. Euthyroid sick syndrome ( ESS) is a state of adaptation or dysregulation of thyrotropic feedback control [1] wherein the levels of T3 and/or T4 are abnormal, but the thyroid gland does not appear to be dysfunctional. This condition may result from allostatic responses of hypothalamus-pituitary-thyroid feedback control ...

  8. Thyroid hormone binding ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyroid_hormone_binding_ratio

    Thyroid hormone binding ratio (THBR) is a thyroid function test that measures the "uptake" of T3 or T4 tracer by thyroid-binding globulin (TBG) in a given serum sample. This provides an indirect and reciprocal estimate of the available binding sites on TBG within the sample. The results are then reported as a ratio to normal serum.

  9. Prothrombin time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prothrombin_time

    Prothrombin time is typically analyzed by a laboratory technologist on an automated instrument at 37 °C (as a nominal approximation of normal human body temperature). [citation needed] Blood is drawn into a test tube containing liquid sodium citrate, which acts as an anticoagulant by binding the calcium in a sample. The blood is mixed, then ...
