The interpretation of the research results contains information for the attending physician and is not a diagnosis. The information in this section cannot be used for self-diagnosis and self-medication. An accurate diagnosis is made by a doctor using both the results of this examination and the necessary information from other sources: anamnesis, results of other examinations, etc. Interpretation of the results of determining the level of apolipoprotein A1 in blood serum Units of measurement: g/l. Reference values Adults. Recommendations for interpretation when assessing cardiorisk: a level >1.25 g/l indicates a low risk. Reference values (population spread) of ApoA1 concentrations for children and adolescents, g/l: Age of Man, ApoA1, g/l Of Woman, ApoA1, g/l <1 year 0,61 - 1,64 0,59 - 1,69 1 - 12 years old 0,93 - 1,72 0,86 - 1,79 12 - 18 years old 0,95 - 1,86 1,01 - 2,23 For data on the population variation of apolipoprotein values in adults, see here.
