<6 and >13 panic values

normal range is 8.6-10

200

Both of these mean the same thing and measure kidney function 

GFR and Creatinine clearance

200

AST is 

elevated level indicate liver disease, but not very specific

200

This will cause Elevated Alk Phos, but is physiologic 

Bone growth in children

200

This is similar to A1C, but only takes 1-2 weeks to test
