SD = standard deviation
Hb = haemoglobin
WCC = white cell count
Plt = platelets
ESR = erythrocyte sedimentation rate
ACE = angiotensin-converting enzyme (normal 8 - 52 IU)
Ca++ = calcium (normal 2.15 - 2.50 mmol/L)
n/a = not applicable
GGT = gamma-glutamyl transferase (normal 0 - 78 IU/L)
AP = alkaline phosphatase (normal 0 - 128 IU/L)
eGFR = estimated glomerular filtration rate
