Homocysteine 9.76μmol/L is generally not high.
Homocysteine is a sulfur-containing amino acid, the normal value is 5-15μmol/L. Homocysteine 9.76μmol/L is in the normal range, so it is not high. Subjects should relax, do not worry too much, do not need special treatment.
Homocysteine is mainly used to screen coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, acute myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction and other diseases. Therefore, if homocysteine>15μmol/L, further cardiac ultrasound, coronary angiography, myocardial necrosis markers, brain magnetic resonance imaging, etc. are needed to confirm the diagnosis,
