🔁2 lines listing a test already listed›
See each one in the lab's own words, and why it counts once🪞LDL/HDL ratio and HDL/LDL ratio are the same fact counted twice›
This package lists two values that are the same fact twice: LDL/HDL ratio and HDL/LDL ratio: Each is one divided by the other. Knowing either gives you the other exactly, so listing both adds a line to the count without adding anything to the result. Neither is wrong on its own, and neither is a duplicate. But the advertised test count is charging you for information you already had.
✅Covers all 7 essential health areas
Listed more than onceA line in the lab's list that names a test already on the list. The advertised count goes up by one; you still get one result. We show the lab's own labels, exactly as printed, so you can check each one yourself.
2 lines of the advertised count come from 2 tests listed more than once.
- Same result, written another wayOne result written a second way: sorted into a category, converted to other units, or turned upside down as the reciprocal ratio. Nothing new is measured.+1 in the count
BUN is blood urea divided by 2.14, so the BUN ratio and the urea ratio are one result written in two units.
- Same test, listed twiceTwo names for one test, or the same name printed twice. Often the test appears in two sections of the report, such as the lipid profile and a heart risk panel. It is one reading from one sample.+1 in the count
“URINARY BILIRUBIN” and “BILE PIGMENT” are two names for Urine Bile Pigments: one reading from one sample, so it counts once.
- Same result, written another wayOne result written a second way: sorted into a category, converted to other units, or turned upside down as the reciprocal ratio. Nothing new is measured.not in the duplicate count
Each is one divided by the other. Knowing either gives you the other exactly, so listing both adds a line to the count without adding anything to the result.

Real tests, and free maths
24 of these 88 aren’t tests. They’re arithmetic on results you already paid for. No extra sample, no extra assay, no extra cost to the lab. Each one still adds a line to the advertised count.
This package is advertised as 90 tests. 27% of what we could resolve is calculated rather than measured.
Show the arithmetic›what each calculated value is worked out from
- Blood Urea Nitrogen= Blood Urea ÷ 2.14
- BUN / Creatinine Ratio= Blood Urea Nitrogen ÷ Creatinine
- Estimated Average Glucose= (28.7 × HbA1c) − 46.7
- Absolute Lymphocyte Count= WBC count × Lymphocyte %
- Absolute Monocyte Count= WBC count × Monocyte %
- Absolute Neutrophil Count= WBC count × Neutrophil %
- MCH= Hemoglobin ÷ RBC count
- MCHC= Hemoglobin ÷ Haematocrit
- Plateletcrit= Platelet count × MPV ÷ 10,000
- Absolute Basophil Count= WBC count × Basophil %
- Absolute Eosinophil Count= WBC count × Eosinophil %
- Globulin= Total Protein − Albumin
- Bilirubin Indirect= Total Bilirubin − Direct Bilirubin
- SGOT/SGPT Ratio= SGOT ÷ SGPT
- A/G Ratio= Albumin ÷ Globulin
- UIBC= TIBC − Serum Iron
- HDL/LDL Ratio= HDL ÷ LDL
- LDL / HDL Ratio= LDL ÷ HDL
- Non-HDL Cholesterol= Total Cholesterol − HDL
- Triglyceride/HDL Ratio= Triglycerides ÷ HDL
- VLDL Cholesterol= Triglycerides ÷ 5
- Transferrin Saturation= (Serum Iron ÷ TIBC) × 100
- Immature Granulocyte Count= WBC count × Immature granulocyte %
- Cholesterol / HDL Ratio= Total Cholesterol ÷ HDL
None of this means a calculated value is useless. eGFR is calculated and doctors act on it every day. The narrower point is the one that matters when you are comparing prices: these were not separately tested, so they should not be separately counted.
Every input above is itself on the same report. For example, BUN / Creatinine Ratio needs nothing beyond Blood Urea Nitrogen and Serum Creatinine, both already measured.
