Across
  1. 5. :Blood sugar (elevated=diabetes mellitus, low levels=collapse, seizures, or coma)
  2. 6. :(Elevations show pancreatitis or kidney disease
  3. 7. Cortisol :Hormone measured in test for cushing's disease (Low dose dexamethasone supression test)and Addison's disease(ACTH Stimulation test)
  4. 8. :Reflects kidney function (Increased = azotemia, caused by kidney, liver, and heart disease, urethral obstruction, shock, and dehydration)
  5. 10. :(Increases may indicate liver, heart, or skeletal muscle damage)
  6. 11. :Test helps ID bile duct problems and certain types of anemia. (Elevations indicate liver or hemolytic disease)
  7. 12. :Deviations can lead to variety of disease(Tumors, Hyperparathyroidism, kidney disease, and low albumin alter calcium)
  8. 13. :Indicates hydration status and provides info about the liver, kidneys, and infectious diseases.
  9. 14. :Enzyme that may indicate pancreatitis when elevated
Down
  1. 1. :(Elevations often associated with kidney disease, hyperthyroidism, and bleeding disorders)
  2. 2. :Enzyme (When elevated indicates liver disease or corticosteroid excess)
  3. 3. : Electrolyte lost with vomiting and Addison's disease (Elevations = dehydration)
  4. 4. :Serum protein that helps evaluate hydration, hemorrhage, and intestinal, liver, and kidney health
  5. 5. :Blood protein (Often increases with chronic inflammation and certain disease states)
  6. 6. :(Sensitive indicator of active liver damagebut doesn't indicate the cause
  7. 7. :Reveals kidney function (Test helps distinguish between kidney and nonkidney causes of elevated BUN)
  8. 9. :Electrolyte lost with vomiting, diarrhea, and kidney or Addison's disease. (Test helps indicate hydration status)
  9. 10. :(Elevations may indicate liver damage, cushing's disease, and active bone growth in young pets
  10. 11. :Thyroid hormone (Decreased levels = Hypothyroidism in dogs, High levels = Hyperthyroidism in cats)
  11. 12. :(Supplement diagnosis of hypothyroidism, liver disease, cushing's disease and diabetes mellitus)
