While there is currently no standardized reference range for u-Hp, the median value of u-Hp in our cohort was 10.45 ng/mL (range: 3.58–73.13 ng/mL), which is lower than the reported median u-Hp concentration of 70 ng/mL in the study of 204 participants from the Veterans Affairs Diabetes Trial (VADT) [32]. The gene discussed is HP; the disease is diabetes mellitus.
