The objective of this descriptive study was to review the usefulness and relevance of the present parameters provided in an annual laboratory health checkup program. Three hundred sixty-four volunteers were randomly selected, composed of 141 males and 223 females age 15 to 81 years old. Samples from all the volunteers were analyzed for CBC, FBG, BUN, Cr, uric acid, Chol, HDLc, Tg, AST, ALT, ALP, UA and stool examination. More than half the young adults (67.7%, 63 of 93) had abnormal laboratory results. This was higher than in the middle-age group (56.8%, 154 of 271).
