IGF BP3

₹7,150.00

Insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFBP-3) is the main carrier of somatomedin C (also called insulin-like growth factor-1, or IGF-1) in the body. Blood levels of both these proteins are controlled by human growth hormone (hGH), a hormone that’s produced by the pituitary gland, a pea-sized gland in the brain that works with the endocrine system. The pituitary gland regulates growth and the function of other glands.

But IGFBP-3 is more than just a transporter. It also helps extend the life of somatomedin C in the blood and helps control its effects on body tissues.

Levels of IGFBP-3 are highest during childhood and puberty, then they decrease during adulthood. Levels also may be affected by sexual maturation and nutritional status

  • Anti HBs

    HBsAg (Hepatitis B surface antigen) – A “positive” or “reactive” HBsAg test result means that the person is infected with hepatitis B. This test can detect the actual presence of the hepatitis B virus (called the ?surface antigen?) in your blood. If a person tests ?positive,? then further testing is needed to determine if this is a new ?acute? infection or a ?chronic? hepatitis B infection. A positive HBsAg test result means that you are infected and can spread the hepatitis B virus to others through your blood.
    anti-HBs or HBsAb (Hepatitis B surface antibody) – A “positive” or “reactive” anti-HBs (or HBsAb) test result indicates that a person is protected against the hepatitis B virus. This protection can be the result of receiving the hepatitis B vaccine or successfully recovering from a past hepatitis B infection. This test is not routinely included in blood bank screenings. A positive anti-HBs (or HBsAb) test result means you are ?immune? and protected against the hepatitis B virus and cannot be infected. You are not infected and cannot spread hepatitis B to others.
    anti-HBc or HBcAb (Hepatitis B core antibody) – A “positive” or “reactive” anti-HBc (or HBcAb) test result indicates a past or current hepatitis B infection. The core antibody does not provide any protection against the hepatitis B virus (unlike the surface antibody described above). This test can only be fully understood by knowing the results of the first two tests (HBsAg and anti-HBs). A positive anti-HBc (or HBcAb) test result requires talking to your health care provider for a complete explanation of your hepatitis B status.

  • TMT

    A Treadmill Stress Test (TMT) is a form of stress test that?s conducted while you do an exercise walking on a treadmill during the course of an Electro Cardiogram (ECG). The TMT testing compares blood circulation in your heart when you?re resting and under the influence of optimum physical pressure. A TMT is performed to ascertain the following conditions.

    To identify a congenital heart problem like Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) wherein blood vessels/arteries get clogged, diseased or damaged
    To determine the functioning of your heart post a heart-attack or angioplasty
    To detect repressed heart conditions like shallow breathing, dizziness, chest discomfort and abrupt bodily weaknesses
    To monitor the efficacy of medications applied to cure diseases such as angina and ischemia
    To discern any abnormal heartbeat rate because of exertion caused by exercise

  • Audiometry

    An audiometry exam tests your ability to hear sounds. Sounds vary, based on their loudness (intensity) and the speed of sound wave vibrations (tone).

    Hearing occurs when sound waves stimulate the nerves of the inner ear. The sound then travels along nerve pathways to the brain.

    Sound waves can travel to the inner ear through the ear canal, eardrum, and bones of the middle ear (air conduction). They can also pass through the bones around and behind the ear (bone conduction).

  • DHT (Dihydrotestosterone)

    This test measures the amount of dihydrotestosterone in the blood. DHT is a hormone derived from testosterone and is directly linked to male and female baldness, sexual development in puberty, acne, and prostate enlargement / cancer.

  • X-Ray

    An x-ray examination uses an electrical device to emit (put out) x-rays and digital technology to create two-dimensional pictures of internal body structures.
    This test is particularly useful in diagnosing conditions or diseases that affect the bones and chest.
    A conventional x-ray examination is non-invasive, painless and does not require any recovery time.
    The dose of radiation from an x-ray examination is considered safe ? roughly the same as you would receive from the general environment in about one week.
