Apo B / Apo A1 Ratio

CalculatedFiller

Apolipoprotein B divided by Apolipoprotein A1.

A derived ratio; both inputs are already reported separately.

This one isn’t a test

Apo B / Apo A1 Ratio = Apolipoprotein B ÷ Apolipoprotein A1

No extra sample was taken for this and no extra assay was run. It is arithmetic on numbers already on your report — but it still adds a line to the advertised test count.

Computed from Apolipoprotein A1 and Apolipoprotein B.

That does not make the number useless — eGFR is calculated and doctors act on it every day. It means it should not be counted as a separate test when you are comparing what a package costs.
