The level, concentration or activity of this biomarker measured in the relevant blood sample.
What the result represents?
Aden's range
What a raised or a low result can indicate
How Aden reads it as part of a system?
Aden reads this result alongside ESR, fibrinogen, white blood cell differential and your previous measurements. It is treated as one part of the wider inflammation picture, not as a diagnosis on its own.
What changes between tests?
Which related markers give it context?
ESR, fibrinogen, white blood cell differential
