I assumed the number was Julia's social security number.

Mmmmm, free (truly!) continental breakfast...

It couldn't be her social security number because ss#'s are 10 numbers and the numbers (8[or is that a B?]1606324684) consist of 11 numbers.JustAnotherLonelyGirl. wrote:I assumed the number was Julia's social security number.

Okay, I did a little research on what the 15.2 pg/mL might mean, but it got tedious and I didn't finish it, if anyone wants to pick up the ball and run with it a little further, feel free. Here are my notes:
The top section just shows conversion of the given value 15.2 pg/mL into various possible clinical data items that use that unit for measurement.
Angiotensin II appears to be a possibility since the value is close to the normal range.
It does not appear likely to be Calcitonin, Estradiol, or Vitamin B12 since the values are not in the expected ranges, from the reference I found for expected adult values. I'm not sure about the PTH value because I don't have the conversion factor to match up the units.
But take all this with a grain of salt, because I think you need quite a lot of medical training to make any reasonable statements about clinical data. Things interact and age, weight, sex, health, etc. are all factors.
Anyone want to search for expected clinical ranges for some of the other items?
Also, in thinking about this, I wonder if whatever the factor of interest turns out to be is tied to maturation... it seems the Order is keeping young females waiting for them to mature, and then checking for some "trait."
My guess is that we are looking for something that is rare/unusual (to get a "Trait Positive" result), so it would make sense then that Julia's "Trait Negative" result would be a more common result, and would fall in an expected range.

OMG I just had a burst of insight.
They label certain genes with numbers.
Maybe that is the number of the trait for which Julia is negative.
-prepares for a late night of LG15 research-

Good job QtheC! that is defiantly some good information.
That was a lot of info, I've done a lot of research too, but I just can't get anything to connect.

a picogram per mL is very very little
ok we had a med student and a pharmacy student here... we can do this

Several other factors other than hormones are measured in picograms/L. Specifically Interleukins.
Interleukins are typcially associated with inflammation processes, however genetic studies have shown some interesting things about several of the interleukins.
IL-8: f a pregnant mother has high levels of interleukin-8, she has a higher risk of inducing schizophrenia in her offspring.[1] High levels of Interleukin 8 have been shown to reduce the chance of good treatment responses to antipsychotic medication in schizophrenia.[2] Interleukin-8 is often associated with inflammation.
Also:
The role of interleukins, such as IL-8, and chemokine receptors (CXCR1 and 2) has been postulated in cancer growth, but no clear connection has been established. Our results will open the possibility of a novel approach for combating metastatic breast cancer.
IL-6: IL-6 is one of the most important mediators of fever and of the acute phase response. In the muscle and fatty tissue IL-6 stimulates energy mobilization which leads to increased body temperature. IL-6 can be secreted by macrophages in response to specific microbial molecules, referred to as pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). These PAMPs bind to highly important detection molecules of the innate immune system, called Toll-like receptors (TLRs), that are present on the cell surface (or in intracellular compartments) which induce intracellular signaling cascades that give rise to inflammatory cytokine production. IL-6 is also essential for hybridoma growth and is found in many supplemental cloning media such as briclone. Inhibitors of IL-6 (including estrogen) are used to treat postmenopausal osteoporosis.
TNF-alpha: tissue necrosis factor. Has several different functions depending on organ being stimulated. Usually works in unison with IL-1 and IL-6.
Bad news...I cannot recall the normal levels of any of these genomes. If anyone wants to do the research there...go for it.
EDIT: To be clear: The above data comes directly from Wikipedia, but were written (partially) by a colleague of mine
