Normal value of homocysteine in 80 years old

The normal value of homocysteine in 80-year-old people is usually 5-15μmol/L.

Homocysteine is a kind of sulfur-containing amino acids, which is a product of methionine and cysteine metabolism. If the elderly maintain an empty stomach before examination, it will not affect homocysteine metabolism in the body. The normal range measured at this time is generally 5-15μmol/L. If the measurement result exceeds 15μmol/L, it is necessary to inform the doctor in time, suggesting that the elderly may suffer from cerebral infarction, acute myocardial infarction and other diseases, and the cause should be clarified by ECG examination, cardiac ultrasound examination, magnetic resonance imaging examination, CT examination and other methods as soon as possible.
