E
Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR)

Used to estimate how well your kidneys are filtering certain agents produced by your body and can be used to identify chronic kidney disease.

G
Gamma Glutamyl Transferase (GGT)

An enzyme found in the liver and is used as a predictive marker of liver damage or disease.

Globulin

Produced in the liver by the immune system and can be used to indicate infection, inflammation as well as kidney or liver disease.

Glucose (Blood)

Glucose levels above the normal range indicate the presence of diabetes mellitus. An additional test called the Glucose Tolerance Test (GTT) is needed to confirm the diagnosis and to access the severity.

Glucose (Urine)

Glucose in the urine is commonly seen in patients with diabetes mellitus and the benign condition called renal glycosuria.

H
Haemoglobin, Red Blood Cells (RBC) and Packed Cell Volume (PCV)

Haemoglobin, the red pigment in the red blood cells is essential for the transport of oxygen to the tissue. If the level is below the normal range, the person is anaemic, looks pale and tires easily. Severe anaemia can lead to heart failure. Anaemia can be due to a) decresed production of normal red blood cells b) lack of essential nutrients like iron c) hereditary disorders like thalassemia. Additional tests may be needed to confirm this.

HDL Cholesterol

This is the good cholesterol as it helps to remove cholesterol from the cells and transport it to the liver for excretion. High levels of HDL are associated with low risk of atherosclerosis and are seen in women before menopause, persons who exercise regularly and non-smokers.

Helicobacter pylori IgG

Intended for use as an aid in the diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection in persons with gastrointestinal symptoms.

Hepatitis A Antibody

Hepatitis A vaccination is usually recommended to those who are travelling to countries that have high or intermediate HAV endemicity before departure. Following immunization, Hepatitis A IgG is usually detectable for life.

Hepatitis B Surface Antibody (Anti-HBs)

A person who recovers completely from a hepatitis B infection or had a successful hepatitis B immunization will have Anti-HBs. The level of Anti-HBs will decrease with time. Those who acquire the Anti-HBS through immunization will require a booster dose if the level falls below 100 mIU/ml.
