Laboratory report
Lab report of "valeurs usuelles pour adultes" consists of a table of 9 columns. From left to right
-name of parameter tested
-expressed as (e.g. mmol/l)
-column with the letter "N" for each entry
-column with the letter "H" or "B" for certain items (e.g. H = créatinine, phosphatases alcalines; B = TSH, T3L, T4L)
-1st column of test results
-2nd column of test results
-column with the letter "F" for certain entries (e.g. Phosphatase, alkaline, ASAT / SGOT ALAT / SGPT GGT)
-last two columns contain results for certain items, but not all
As there is no key to explain the letters N, H, B, F, I would appreciate your input on what these are, rather than me guessing and getting it wrong. (N= normale, H=haut, B=bas?) There is not other indication of what these might be, other than the results contained in the table.
TIA for your help.

Male/Female e.g. Creatinine, serum typical results are
Male 70 – 120 μmol/L
Female 50 – 90 μmol/L

The N does seem to be the usual/normal level.
TSH, T3L and T4L do vary by age. TSH for example
10 jours à 2 ans 2,6 à 10,8 pmol/l
2 ans à 16 ans 4,4 à 11 pmol/l
Not sure about the B though :-(

Unless it's "Blood"?

"F" is not fasting, as the tests listed do not change with food.
Thanks to everyone for your in put.
Is one still a bout de chou over 15? I doubt it :-)
These will vary by lab, so values aren't set in stone.
It would help to see an extract from the table.
Here an example of one entire line with the 9 possible entries:
Phosphatase, alkaline .... IU/l ....... N: - H - 40 - 130 - F - 35 - 105
N is often nouveau né but that doesn't work here.
Other than the title "valeurs usuelles pour adultes au + date" , there is no other indication that might shed light on things.
The table may be related to a clinical trial, so perhaps the values are those of a cohort of study subjects?
