nameMethylsuccinate/Creatinine [Mass Ratio] in Urine
statusACTIVE

Fully-Specified Name

componentMethylsuccinate/Creatinine
propertyMRto  =  Mass Ratio
timePt  =  Point in time:  To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.
systemUrine
scaleQn  =  Quantitative:  The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range. The test result value may optionally contain a relational operator from the set {<=, <, >, >=}. Valid values for a quantitative test are of the form "7", "-7", "7.4", "-7.4", "7.8912", "0.125", "<10", "<10.15", ">12000", 1-10, 1:256

History/Usage

test rank6952 of 2000 most commonly performed tests by labs in USA
first released
last updated2.73
last change typeMIN  - change to field other than name
change reasonThis term was Discouraged in a previous release because at the time (2013), this analyte was not being measured in mass units. We are changing the term back to Active status because at least two major laboratories are currently (in 2018) measuring this analyte in mass units.
