#20: ____________ commonly used to evaluate for vitamin B12 deficiency.
#21: Low AST, ALT, GGT, Alk Phos with high iron and high RDW suggest need for vitamin B6.
#22: Elevated anion gap and fasting glucose, low CO2, low hemoglobin, low hematocrit, low LDH suggests a need for vitamin B2 support.
#23: You have a client with the following labs: high alkaline phosphatase, RBC, MCV, MCH, MCHC and low hemoglobin & hematocrit. What nutritional need does this indicate?
#24: Low alkaline phosphatase and low WBC indicate _______________ deficiency.
#25: Ceruloplasmin is decreased when copper storage is excessive.
#26: Blood marker ratios are not significant.
#27: Failure to store excess iron as ferritin
#28: High Serum iron : Low hemoglobin ratio suggests vitamin B6 deficiency
#29: High triglycerides with relation to HDL is usually indicative of insulin resistance.
#30: Low BUN/Creatinine ratio suggests kidney dysfunction, high protein diet, dehydration or GI Bleeding.
