What’s searchable?Normal <100; prediabetes 100-125; diabetes ≥126 on confirmatory testing unless unequivocal hyperglycemia.
Diabetes may be diagnosed at ≥200 with classic symptoms or hyperglycemic crisis.
Interpret with concurrent glucose, kidney function, and exogenous insulin use.
Highly preanalytic-sensitive. Fasting, processing, and recent intake matter.
Recent supplementation can elevate; very high values may be clinically relevant.
Direct renin and plasma renin activity are not interchangeable.
Supine collection and stress control improve specificity; use exact lab cutoffs.
Normal <140; prediabetes 140-199; diabetes ≥200.
No universal reference or treatment target. Standardize fasting duration and collection time.
Renal threshold, SGLT2 inhibitors, pregnancy, and hyperglycemia matter.
Volume status, glucose, osmolality, and medications may alter interpretation.
Fasting, Gilbert syndrome, hemolysis, and liver disease may alter result.
