What does the health check measure?

Blood lipids

Total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides provide a basic overview of blood lipids and are used alongside other risk factors to assess cardiovascular health.

Advanced cardiovascular markers

ApoA1, ApoB, and Lipoprotein(a) provide additional information about blood lipoproteins. Lp(a) levels are largely genetically determined.

Long-term blood sugar

HbA1c reflects average blood sugar levels over approximately the last two to three months.

Inflammation

hs-CRP is a high-sensitivity marker for inflammation. The value is non-specific and can be influenced by factors such as infection.

Iron status

Ferritin is used as a marker for the body's iron stores. Transferrin transports iron in the blood. Ferritin levels can also rise during inflammation.

Vitamins

25-OH-vitamin D is used to assess vitamin D status. Holotranscobalamin (active B12) indicates the fraction of B12 available to the body's cells.

Thyroid

TSH regulates the thyroid gland's hormone production. Free T3 and free T4 represent the unbound thyroid hormones, while TPO antibodies can be relevant in cases of autoimmune activity.

Hormones

Testosterone, estradiol, progesterone, FSH, LH, prolactin, cortisol, DHEA-S, and SHBG provide insight into various aspects of sex hormones, pituitary regulation, and adrenal function. Timing and the menstrual cycle can influence several values.

Muscles

Creatine kinase (CK) is an enzyme found primarily in muscles; levels can rise following strenuous physical activity or muscle injury, among other causes.

Liver

ALT, ALP, GGT, bilirubin, albumin, and total protein provide information on various aspects of the liver, bile ducts, and blood proteins.

Kidneys and electrolytes

Creatinine and cystatin C are used to estimate kidney filtration capacity. eGFR is a calculated value. Sodium reflects a key component of the body's fluid and electrolyte balance.

All included markers

• Total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides, ApoA1, ApoB, and Lipoprotein(a)
• HbA1c and hs-CRP
• Ferritin and transferrin
• 25-OH-vitamin D and active B12 (Holo-TC)
• TSH, free T3, free T4, and TPO antibodies
• Testosterone, estradiol, progesterone, FSH, LH, prolactin, cortisol, DHEA-S, and SHBG
• Creatine kinase (CK)
• ALT, ALP, GGT, bilirubin, albumin, and total protein
• Creatinine, calculated eGFR, cystatin C, eGFR based on cystatin C, and sodium

Symptoms and when a comprehensive health check may be relevant

The comprehensive profile is designed for those who want extensive laboratory data from a single home test and wish to monitor multiple areas of health simultaneously.

This comprehensive profile may be relevant for vague symptoms such as fatigue or changes in energy levels, but it is not a substitute for a medical assessment when symptoms are distinct, new, or persistent.

Many abnormalities do not cause clear symptoms. A test result may therefore show values ​​that cannot be interpreted based solely on how you feel.

Who is this test for?

• For those who want the most comprehensive health check in our range.
• For those who want to include both thyroid antibodies and a comprehensive hormone profile.
• For those who want to track multiple laboratory values ​​over time.

How the test works

1. Order the test and receive the sampling kit at home.
2. Read the instructions and complete any necessary preparations.
3. Prick your fingertip and collect liquid capillary blood in the provided sample tube.
4. Label and pack the sample, then send it to the laboratory.
5. The laboratory analyzes the included markers.
6. View your digital laboratory report in your personal health portal.

Before sample collection

Follow the instructions in the sample collection kit. Any requirements regarding fasting, morning sampling, or cycle day are specified there. Strenuous physical activity can affect CK and certain other markers.

Laboratory and quality

The sample is analyzed at a medical laboratory accredited according to ISO 15189. The laboratory's quality assurance also adheres to Rili-BÄK guidelines for laboratory medical testing.

• Sample material: liquid capillary blood
• Sampling location: at home
• Result: digital laboratory report
• Turnaround time: transport time and the scope of the analysis affect the total time

Results and reference values

The result displays the analyzed markers and any calculated values, along with the laboratory's units and applicable reference ranges. Results should be interpreted in the context of age, gender, symptoms, medications, lifestyle habits, and medical history.

Important information about the results

A health check can identify abnormal laboratory values ​​but does not provide a medical diagnosis or rule out disease. Contact a healthcare provider in the event of significantly abnormal results, persistent symptoms, or concerns.

Frequently asked questions

Can the health check detect disease?

It can show abnormal laboratory values ​​but does not provide a diagnosis on its own.

How do I receive the results?

The results are displayed digitally, showing the laboratory's units and current reference ranges.

What should I do if a value is abnormal?

Contact a healthcare provider for a medical assessment and any necessary follow-up.

Can medications and dietary supplements affect the results?

Yes, certain markers can be affected. Never alter prescribed treatment without consulting a healthcare professional.

Can I compare this with a later test?

Yes. For the most meaningful comparison, follow-up tests should be taken under similar conditions.
