How fast red cells settle in a tube, which rises with inflammation.

How we rate it: Useful
Worth doing for a specific reason: a risk factor, a symptom, an age group.
This rating and the description above were written against published screening guidelines by someone who is not a clinician, and are awaiting review by one. We would rather say that than imply an authority we do not have.
