Pediatric reference intervals for endocrine markers and fertility hormones in healthy children and adolescents on the Siemens Healthineers Atellica immunoassay system

Abstract

Overall, the age- and sex-specific trends observed closely mirrored those previously reported by CALIPER on other platforms as well as other internationally recognized studies. However, established lower and upper limits demonstrated some discrepancies between published values from healthy cohorts on alternate analytical systems, highlighting differences between manufacturers and the need for platform-specific reference intervals for informed pediatric clinical decision-making.
