Lipid Profile
The Lipid Profile assesses the level of specific fat molecules called lipids in the blood and helps determine the risk of heart ailments. This test determines the amount of different types of lipids, including total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, and triglycerides. Lipids play a pivotal role in the functioning of the body. They are crucial components of the cell membranes and hormones, provide cushioning, and are a storehouse of energy. Any alterations in the lipid levels may lead to potential heart ailments, making their monitoring crucial.

Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio, Urine
Usually, albumin and creatinine tests are done randomly (not timed) on a urine sample, and the results are used to calculate an albumin/creatinine ratio (ACR). This test gives a more accurate indication of how much albumin is being released into the urine.
The healthy kidneys keep healthy components such as albumin and filter waste from the blood. In case of kidney damage, albumin can leak through the kidneys and exit the body through urine.
In case of any damage caused to the kidney, albumin is one of the first proteins to leak through the kidney. This test is recommended in those patients who are at increased risk of kidney disease or damage such as patients with type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, or high blood pressure.
Creatinine is a byproduct of muscle metabolism. Normally, it is released into the urine at a constant rate. The level of creatinine in the urine is an indication of the urine concentration. Thus, creatinine measurement can be used to indicate correct urine concentration when measuring albumin in a random urine sample.
The presence of a small amount of albumin in the urine can be an early indicator of kidney disease. The term ‘microalbuminuria’ is referred to a condition in which a small amount of albumin is present in the urine, while the term ‘albuminuria’ refers to a condition where there is presence of any amount of rise in albumin levels in the urine.
