Interpretation of pathophysiology by laboratory data (1). Graphic display of data, static pattern

We have been performing the following studies over the past several years: 1) Conversion of the data of blood chemistry to a standard deviation index (SDI) as a common scale to offset differences due to measuring conditions. 2) Static global display of all the various SDI values at a single time-point on a radar chart for each patient (static radar chart). 3) Dynamic display of the pathophysiology of each patient by a radar chart (dynamic radar chart), and by a serial line graph using colors. 4) Automatic, quantitative and objective interpretation of the pathophysiology of each patient with our program at an adequate time-point selected on the dynamic display graphs. 5) Scrutiny of the interpreted results in comparison with the clinical course and data for other examinations. The present report includes details of 1), and 2).
