Re: Mediator Release Test       11/27/08 10:19 AM Edit Reply Quote Syl Reged: 03/13/05 Posts: 5499 Loc: SK, CANADA The mediator release test or LEAP (Lifestyle Eating and Performance) test is listed as a dubious blood test on Quackwatch. I could not find a reference to this test on any credible hospital or university research site. Also, I cannot find any research papers published in reputable medical journals on this test. Also on page 3 of this SelectHealth insurance it states about insurance coverage for this test is "Deny as investigational due to lack of evidence to support statistical validity and clinical utility" It doesn't look like this test is any given any credence by the medical community. -------------------- STABLE: ♂, IBS-D 50+ years - Science of IBS The FODMAP Approach to Managing IBS Symptoms Evidence-based Dietary Management of Functional GI Symptoms: The FODMAP Approach FODMAP Chart & Cheatsheet The Role of Food & Dietary Intervention in IBS Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
