Package Inclusions
Components |
Scientific Rationality |
Lipid Profile |
The lipid abnormalities in patients who are obese include elevated serum triglyceride, VLDL and HDL values |
Kidney Function test |
In individuals affected by obesity, a compensatory hyper-filtration occurs to meet the heightened metabolic demands of the increased body weight. The increase in intra glomerular pressure can damage the kidneys and raise the risk of developing CKD in the long term |
Thyroid profile |
Hypothyroidism can contribute to unwanted weight gain and obesity. |
Leptin |
Leptin resistance contributes to obesity and causes additional weight gain in the form of fat storage due to stimulating hunger and decreasing metabolism |
HOMA-IR |
Obesity is a triggering factor for diabetes associated with insulin resistance. In individuals who are obese, higher amounts of non-esterified fatty acids, glycerol, hormones, and pro-inflammatory cytokines that could participate in the development of insulin resistance are released by adipose tissue |
Urine routine |
Obesity could cause nocturia by increased urine production or by increased voiding frequency |
