B BioMarco FICTIONAL EXAMPLE MICHAEL SMITH / 16 FEB 2026 Canada · Fasting START HERE Your results, in focus Educational example • AI-assisted • 3 Nov 2026 1 / 7 Michael Smith · Age 52 · Male · Born 15 January 1974 1 Put heart health first LDL 3.89 mmol/L · ApoB 1.23 g/L · Lp(a) 139 nmol/L These related findings deserve a cardiovascular risk review. Blood pressure, smoking and family history help decide what to do next. [1] 2 Put the sugar flags in context A1c 5.7% · Fasting glucose 6.00 mmol/L Below Diabetes Canada’s prediabetes thresholds. Review risk and trends; the U.S. definition differs. See page 2. [2,3] 3 Clarify the iron and bilirubin results Iron saturation 54% · Total bilirubin 22.2 µmol/L Both are above the source laboratory’s limits. They need context and possible repeat testing; they do not establish a diagnosis on their own. [4,5] Also reassuring: blood-cell counts, electrolytes and liver enzymes are within the source laboratory’s intervals. For the follow-up: bring previous results, blood-pressure readings, family history and a complete medicine and supplement list. A fictional educational example, not a personal treatment plan. This revision has not been recorded as pharmacist-approved. Full values: pages 4–6. Sources and method: page 7.

B BioMarco FICTIONAL EXAMPLE MICHAEL SMITH / 16 FEB 2026 Canada · Fasting UNDERSTAND THE PRIORITIES Heart health & blood sugar Educational example • AI-assisted • 3 Nov 2026 2 / 7 Read the cholesterol results together LDL cholesterol (3.89 mmol/L), non-HDL cholesterol (4.35 mmol/L) and ApoB (1.23 g/L) describe related aspects of cholesterol carried by particles that can contribute to artery disease. All are above the laboratory’s comparisons. HDL of 1.79 mmol/L and triglycerides of 0.88 mmol/L are favourable findings, but do not cancel this pattern. [1] Lp(a) adds useful context Lp(a) is 139 nmol/L. It is largely inherited and is a cardiovascular risk modifier. The next conversation is about overall risk and how much LDL lowering would be appropriate. This sample lacks blood pressure, smoking status and medical history, so no personal risk score or medicine choice is assigned. [1] hs-CRP 2.7 mg/L: an inflammation marker that may inform risk assessment. Illness and other factors can affect it; it does not locate a cause. [1] Why Canada and the U.S. use different labels Prediabetes definition A1c Fasting glucose Diabetes Canada [2] 6.0–6.4% 6.1–6.9 mmol/L U.S. ADA [3] 5.7–6.4% 100–125 mg/dL (about 5.6–6.9 mmol/L) This sample 5.7% 108 mg/dL = 6.00 mmol/L The definitions differ; the measured values do not. Risk changes gradually rather than switching at a cut-off. Review the trend and decide whether and when to repeat testing. A1c reflects roughly the past 2–3 months; fasting glucose is a single-time measurement. [2,3]

B BioMarco FICTIONAL EXAMPLE MICHAEL SMITH / 16 FEB 2026 Canada · Fasting A FOCUSED FOLLOW-UP What to clarify next Educational example • AI-assisted • 3 Nov 2026 3 / 7 Iron: check whether the pattern persists Transferrin saturation is 54% (source interval 20–48%); ferritin is 248 µg/L (38–380). Raised saturation with ferritin in range does not prove iron overload, and ferritin alone cannot settle the question. Review previous results, iron-containing supplements and family history. A clinician can decide whether to repeat the iron studies and investigate persistent elevation. [4] Bilirubin: a small rise needs context Total bilirubin is 22.2 µmol/L (original: 1.3 mg/dL; upper comparison 1.2). AST, ALT, ALP and GGT are within their source intervals. This does not establish liver disease or Gilbert syndrome. Symptoms, previous values and, if indicated, direct and indirect bilirubin can help explain the result. [5] Kidneys: one result is not a diagnosis Creatinine is 87.5 µmol/L and eGFR is 89 mL/min/1.73 m². This eGFR alone does not diagnose chronic kidney disease. Persistence and other signs of kidney damage matter. No urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) was provided. Discuss whether it is relevant to the person’s risk. [6] Three questions for the next visit 1. What is my overall cardiovascular risk? 2. Which findings should be repeated, and when? 3. Would any change to medicines or supplements help? Other results: vitamin D is within the source laboratory’s interval. That alone is not a reason to increase supplements; there is no universal prevention target for healthy adults. [7] An insulin value alone does not diagnose insulin resistance. [9]

B BioMarco FICTIONAL EXAMPLE MICHAEL SMITH / 16 FEB 2026 Canada · Fasting A TRANSPARENT REPORT Sources & method Educational example • AI-assisted • 3 Nov 2026 7 / 7 What this example represents Michael Smith is a fictional identity. Values come from the de-identified Quest sample shown on BioMarco, collected on 16 February 2026. No symptoms, medical history, medicines or earlier results were invented. This AI-assisted revision has no recorded clinical approval. Every actual patient report requires its own pharmacist assessment and approval. How to read the comparisons A laboratory interval, a diagnostic threshold and a treatment target serve different purposes. An H flag reproduces the source flag only; it is not a severity or urgency score. Clinical context and changes over time guide interpretation. Conversions and data fidelity [8] Factors applied to original units: cholesterol ×0.0259; triglycerides ×0.0113; glucose ×0.05551; BUN to urea ×0.357; calcium ×0.25; iron and TIBC ×0.179; creatinine ×88.4; bilirubin ×17.104; uric acid ×59.5; vitamin D ×2.496; proteins and hemoglobin ×10; ApoB ×0.01. Ferritin: ng/mL = µg/L. Cell counts are restated per litre. Lp(a) has no mass conversion. Displays and comparison limits are rounded only after conversion.
